The Importance of Consistent Units in Measurement

We're covering the last assumption of Little's Law in this series, and this time we're looking at why consistent units must be used for all measures

This one seems obvious and trivial, but that doesn't always translate on a practical level when we're thinking about how we want our work items and the planning around them to look.

This assumption comes down to deciding what unit of measurement is valuable for planning and communicating, and then only using those units—not transferring them to other ways of measuring.

In this episode, dive into this thought-provoking assumption with us and learn how consistency of your measurements can make your forecasts more meaningful, stable, and reliable.
