Radical Transparency isn’t about exposing people — it’s about elevating teamwork.
In Agile, DevOps, and DevEx, performance isn’t a solo act — it’s only ever about the team.
At Umano, we’ve learned with our customers that Radical Transparency isn’t about monitoring or micromanaging. Projecting this intention or energy will only ever suffocate and stifle flow.
It’s about making work visible, so patterns emerge, conversations happen, and blockers are surfaced early — without blame.
When teams see the same truth, they can co-own the outcomes.
It’s not a dashboard culture. It’s a dialogue culture.
✨ When team members understand the 'why' behind metrics, and leaders stay curious about the story behind the data, psychological safety thrives. Teams feel seen, heard, and empowered to improve together.
We’re seeing this reshape how modern engineering orgs approach productivity and well-being.
Curious how your team’s experience of transparency is shaping outcomes?
