Gut Feeling Decision Making
Developers should use gut feeling decision making when facing ambiguous problems, tight deadlines, or when data is incomplete, as it allows for rapid prototyping and iterative adjustments
Pros
- +It is particularly valuable in creative tasks like UI/UX design, architectural choices, or troubleshooting, where past experience can guide efficient solutions without over-analysis
- +Related to: agile-methodology, problem-solving
Cons
- -Specific tradeoffs depend on your use case
The Verdict
Use Project Management Metrics if: You want specific use cases include sprint planning with velocity tracking, identifying bottlenecks through cycle time analysis, managing technical debt with code quality metrics, and aligning development efforts with business objectives using okrs or roi calculations and can live with specific tradeoffs depend on your use case.
Use Gut Feeling Decision Making if: You prioritize it is particularly valuable in creative tasks like ui/ux design, architectural choices, or troubleshooting, where past experience can guide efficient solutions without over-analysis over what Project Management Metrics offers.
