Goal Question Metric
Purposedifferent
When strategic direction needs to become measurable, it connects ambition with checkable results. It makes goals connectable to focus and review.When a goal needs to be connected to several possible paths, it shows chains of impact instead of feature lists. It connects business goal, behavior change, and measures.Helps clarify technical problems, hypotheses, and next steps in concrete terms. It breaks a technical problem into testable parts. The result is captured as a GQM table and metric briefs.
