At Sphere.it Connect this February, Anita Zbieg (Network Perspective) joined us to unpack a critical question every engineering leader should ask:

What really drives developer productivity—outputs, or the day-to-day experience that shapes how those outputs are created?

In her session, “From Delivery Outputs to Inputs: DORA, DevEx, and Beyond,” Anita explored how leading tech organizations are shifting from chasing delivery metrics to improving the inputs — clarity, focus, collaboration, and psychological flow — that truly influence delivery speed, ease, and quality.
Now, her team has published the first comprehensive study of Developer Experience (DevEx) in Polish teams — and it’s a must-read for anyone building high-performing software organizations:

🔗https://www.networkperspective.io/devex-w-polskich-zespolach

Here’s what you’ll find inside:

🇵🇱 Data-driven insights into how Polish engineering teams really work
⚙️ What separates high-performing teams from those stuck in delivery chaos
🤖 How AI can either accelerate excellence or amplify dysfunction
⏱️ Practical steps for improving developer experience in your org

At http://sphere.it/, we’re excited to see this conversation grow — from global frameworks like DORA to local DevEx insights that help teams measure what matters.
