> Each engineering team is unique, so its blockers will be specific. It's not so simple as "more maker time is better." If your engineering team is new or temporarily misaligned on key goals, more meeting time might be the answer. What never changes is the need for measurement and well-considered, deliberate decisions
And we came full circle back to measuring a teams productivity being an art form. Maybe you have a metric now: Hours spent in meetings per week, but nobody knows how much is too much and how little is too little. How do you measure the impact of more meeting on productivity? Or the impact of less meeting? If your measure of productivity is "time in meeting"? This is a circular dependency.
