So much content is written/discussed covering ways to measure agile teams. In fact, we discussed agile metrics in the past, but this episode turns the tables and we discuss how agile leaders should be measured. If you're a leader, listen to this episode to discover if you're already an agile leader or if you have some room to grow.
