Commonalities between quantum physics and Agile
summary
Controlled measurements show concrete effects: watching code review cycle time cuts averages from >5 days to under 1.5 days while lapses in attention let it rebound to ~3.5 days, so daily inspection directly changes flow; timing stakeholder interactions rises from ~20% → 60% of sprint review time after a secret facilitation change and yields fixes shipped before release but explicit observers later reduce engagement; tracking story points shows no steady inflation, so measurement both moves and informs outcomes.
