Imagine you haven’t visited the dentist for a while. The longer you wait, the bigger the chance of a problem, right? Now, apply that same logic to your teamwork—this is where DSL (Days Since Last) metrics come in. DSL metrics can help your team go from good to awesome by focusing on risk reduction, early problem detection, and continuous improvement.
