Understanding the difference between Lead Time and Cycle Time is crucial for Agile teams to assess and improve their workflow and delivery processes effectively. By monitoring both metrics, teams can identify bottlenecks, reduce waste, and optimize their overall productivity. Keeping Lead Time as short as possible ensures that customer needs are addressed promptly, while minimizing Cycle Time helps in streamlining the development or delivery process, leading to higher efficiency and throughput.
