Summary
In high-stakes financial development, success relies on team outcomes, not individual output metrics, such as lines of code. This approach advocates granting developers autonomy and responsibility to define context-specific strategies. Outcome-based metrics, such as time to address critical bugs, empower self-organization and lead to faster, more effective results than top-down control.
