Gaining insights into your Engineering Culture

If you are not measuring your engineering culture, how do you know that your investment in software engineering teams has the fertile ecosystem to yield optimal returns?
Culture, by its emergent nature, defies accurate measurement. It is an intuitive ‘tacit knowing’ derived from our subjective experiences. Culture results from our collective underlying assumptions and worldviews and our experience of the interactions which ensue from acting on our beliefs and values.
So how do you measure engineering culture in order to manage it?
How do you know what to do and focus on to improve it?
To do this, we created the Engineering Culture Index.
