An interesting quote from _The Lean Startup_:“… if you decide to implement [cross functional teams], I predict that you pretty quickly will get feedback from your teams that the new process is reducing their productivity. They will ask to go back to the old way of working, in which they had the opportunity to ‘stay efficient’ by working in larger batches and passing work between departments …. When people are used to evaluating their productivity locally, they feel that a good day is one in which they did their job well all day.”I don’t doubt that most companies have unnecessary meetings that should be eliminated. But when it comes to complex work, I do question the use of trying to measure efficiency or productivity. I’m interested in agility as a way to optimize *adaptability*. Sometimes the appearance of greater efficiency or productivity may be side effects of this, other times not.—mj(Michael)

I've been doing some internal research on the efficiency of several of our Agile running teams and projects to see how much time we spend on Development Tasks vs Meetings/Communication/Quoting?etc.I've been unable to find much information online to validate our teams' performance. Would love to compare stats with anyone else who tracks this for their teams or is aware of a credible standard to baseline against.Thanks,--

Or you might reframe the question and ask the individuals on your team:
- What could make our meetings more efficient?
- Is there any information that we aren’t covering at the meetings?
That way even if your team is in the top 10% against the baselines, you’ll still get better!
