The AI hosts cover how this practice, while logical to some leaders, can damage trust , produce misleading data , and hinder real improvement . The conversation covers using metrics as a tool to help teams improve , focusing on context, collaboration, and actionable steps . The main takeaway is clear: metrics should promote overall improvement , not serve as personal performance scores. Link to the article : We Have Metrics.
