Agile Teams and Escaping Velocity with Doc Norton and Claire Podulka Follow us on Twitter! @techdoneright (https://twitter.com/tech_done_right), leave us a review on iTunes, and please sign up for our newsletter (http://www.techdoneright.io/newsletter)! Guests Doc Norton (https://twitter.com/DocOnDev): Co-Founder and CEO of CTO2 (http://www.wearecto2.com). Claire Podulka (https://twitter.com/cpodulka): Project Manager at Table XI (http://www.tablexi.com/). Summary How can you tell whether an agile software team is successful? Many teams use a single measure: velocity. Doc Norton, author of Escape Velocity, and Claire Podulka join the show to discuss why velocity is not a useful measure: it doesn't explain the problems with an unsuccessful team, and successful teams probably don't need it. We discuss the problems with velocity, what to use instead, and get on soapboxes for our least favorite agile anti-patterns.
