Advanced Scrum Case Studies Volume 7

You are an Agile Coach and your client has asked you a question. He is an engineering manager and the company has just announced a "work from home" policy. Developers may now work from home instead of coming to the office.
The Engineering Manager has asked you if there are any "Agile Metrics" he can use to make sure his developers stay busy and are not being lazy. He is investigating software to record when people log in and log out, and count their keystrokes in between.
What should you tell him to do?
This case and the others in the series come from the real-world experiences of a group of Scrum professionals who meet regularly to discuss the Scrum Framework and how to apply it to actual situations they have encountered. These discussions have been led since 2015 by Frederik Mark Fowler, A Doctor of Scrum and Holder of the Professional Scrum Master level III certification awarded by Scrum.org. Fred has worked with the Scrum Framework for almost 20 years and has trained more then 300 people to become Scrum Masters and Product Owners.
