Leading SAFe® with SAFe Agilist Certification
Learn how to leverage the Scaled Agile Framework® (SAFe®) to lead a lean-agile enterprise.
This training explores the importance of business agility to thriving in the digital age. We will share insights participants can use to lead a lean-agile enterprise by leveraging the Scaled Agile Framework® (SAFe®). This training will help prepare participants to take the SAFe Agilist (SA) exam required for SA certification.
The training begins by exploring the SAFe principles, derived from lean product development, agile development, DevOps and systems thinking. Then, we will discuss how to establish team and technical agility and organize around the flow of value. The training then focuses on the importance of adopting a customer-centric mindset and applying design thinking as part of the agile product delivery core competency. We also provide participants with an opportunity to experience a planning interval (PI) planning event.
Participants gain insights and recommendations for building a continuous delivery pipeline and instilling a DevOps culture. Additionally, participants will gain an understanding of lean portfolio management and the steps needed for implementing this function in their enterprise.
