🎙️ In this episode of the Take5IRL podcast, hosts @Pat and @Mike explore another key flow metric: cycle time.

Cycle time measures the duration from one point in your workflow to another—making it one of the most honest and revealing Agile metrics for productivity. While it needs consistency to be reliable, it also reflects the unique rhythm of each team.

They discuss why baselining your current cycle time is a powerful starting point. As your Agile transformation unfolds, tracking cycle time lets you clearly see the impact of your changes and begin to predict delivery with confidence.
