[OSPO Mind Map] Measure Value #157

Open Sealjay opened 2 years ago

Sealjay commented 2 years ago

Discussing the mind map with @dwjobling, he raised that there isn't a top-level activity to "measure value." Because of this, performance metrics assume that the activity is valuable and valued but doesn't directly measure whether an activity an OSPO is running is worthwhile doing. (David's observation, I can't take credit!)

I think this is a valuable observation because it differs from community engagement and upstream impact; I'd propose that we have a top-level activity of measure value, which could include the impact on employees, return on investment, community engagement, reuse and productivity, reducing cost, reducing business risk (thinking back to Taylor English's OSPOCon 2021 talk), community goodwill, marketing, and compliance.

If people agreed, happy to support with a PR.

hey @Sealjay I think this is a discussion that is worth exploring and making an update on the OSPO Mind Map. There is an OSPO Metrics Working Group, where maybe this conversation can be raised (they meet bi-weekly on Thursdays)

Real-time communication and agenda planning happens on the wg-ospometrics-chaoss TODO slack 👍
