Several teams work on a city recycling-set-out product but inspect unrelated numbers. How should the Product Owner enable Evidence-Based Management?
Select an answer to reveal the explanation.
Short Explanation
If nobody posts the destination, every crew will measure a different thing and still feel busy. Transparent goals tell teams which evidence is worth gathering for recycling set-out. Hiding the goal or swapping it for velocity just guarantees five dashboards and one confused city.
Full Explanation
EBM depends on transparency of goals so people can inspect the same outcomes and capabilities. When recycling teams watch unrelated numbers, they cannot tell whether Intermediate or Tactical Goals are moving. The Product Owner should make the goals ladder visible so teams collect relevant evidence. Private goals, hidden strategy, and a shared velocity target all reduce transparency and substitute output or local optimization for product evidence.
