Why Engineering Metrics Fail — and How Leaders Can Make Them Stick

# Roundtable

Many engineering metrics initiatives start with good intentions and end in skepticism or abandonment. This session breaks down why metrics programs so often fail to deliver value—and what engineering leaders can do differently to build trusted, durable measurement systems that teams actually use.

Key Topics:

The most common failure modes of engineering metrics programs

How leadership behavior determines whether metrics succeed or fail

Creating trust and psychological safety around measurement

Designing metrics programs teams engage with—not resist

Practical steps leaders can take to reset or relaunch measurement efforts

Join us to leave the hypotheticals at the door and dive into actionable insights and real-world applications with engineering leaders who are eager to share and learn from experience.

We look forward to seeing you there!
