Leading SAFe (SA)
This is an abstract.
How does collaboration work with multiple agile teams?
How do I organize work by value streams across departments?
What changes with the introduction of SAFe?
We analyze and answer these questions together in our Leading SAFe® training. We derive how SAFe works and how a collaboration of multiple agile teams can work. We show how different roles can support and promote an agile organization. We do this in the form of a hands-on workshop.
The next trainings:
The content of the "Leading SAFe®" workshop: Understanding and applying SAFe
In this training, you will learn how a Lean Agile organization works. You will apply the Scaled Agile Framework (SAFe®) and its underlying principles from Lean, Systems Thinking, Agile Development, Product Development Flow and DevOps to understand how it works.
A training for anyone who wants to have an overview of how a scaled agile organization can work
Leaders understand how they can support an agile organization. Coaches get an answer to what SAFe can and cannot do. Scrum Masters, Product Owners, and curious team members understand how to organize across team boundaries. Stakeholders understand how an agile organization works to deliver more value to them. Requirements, release, and test managers or project managers learn where these roles fit in an agile organization.
Varied mix of theory and practice
Like all our agile trainings, this one is interactive. Our focus is on experience-based learning: We impart knowledge through exercises, we discuss topics together on flipcharts, and we address practical cases. Of course, the official SAFe® slides are included. The wibas trainers are certified SAFe® Program Consultants (SPC) of Scaled Agile, Inc. with real-world experience. More details about this training can be found on the official SAFe® Website.
Three days to experience and reflect on scaled agility
Unlike other SAFe trainings, our Leading SAFe is three days long - remote and in presence. This gives us the space for exercises that bring scaled agility to life. On this basis, we can address the individual context of the participants and answer questions from practice.
