Leading SAFe
Success in a fast-paced world requires organisations to be able to react successfully to the quickly changing needs of customers, markets, and personnel. When we asked our customers about their biggest challenges, the same issues arose from our 10 000 participants: communication, change management, and lack of resources. Clear prioritisation and focus on delivering value are key elements needed for business agility. The Scaled Agile Framework, SAFe, offers solutions to these challenges.
Leading SAFe -course
Leading SAFe is the best possible start for the agile journey. You will get a thorough understanding of the background of lean and agile, its principles, and terminology. You will also understand how agile teams work and what lean portfolio management and funding is.
After the course, you will know how to form agile teams and build cooperation between multiple teams. You will be able to execute joint planning for various teams, leading to faster value delivery. You will also learn to build a lean portfolio so that the chosen strategic products constantly create value for the customer. Moreover, you will understand how agile funding enables agility at the team level in practice.
Based on the knowledge gained from the course, you will be able to reflect on and get a clear picture of your organisation's current state. You will understand the challenges and can sketch the following steps to becoming fully agile. This course gives a comprehensive view of Lean and Agile.
