What you'll walk out able to do.

- Support and take part in PI Planning, the heartbeat event of SAFe.
- Build and launch Agile Release Trains (ARTs) organized around the flow of value.
- Establish team and technical agility across your organization.
- Connect portfolio strategy to delivery with Lean Portfolio Management.
Two days. One operating system for the enterprise.
The standard Leading SAFe curriculum, taught by people who have run it inside examined, audited, regulated organizations.
Day one
The leader and the framework
- Thriving in the digital age with business agility
- Becoming a Lean-Agile leader: mindset, values, and SAFe principles

Transformations don't fail in the teams. They fail in the leadership meeting. Leading SAFe is for the people whose behavior the rest of the organization watches:
- Executives and senior leaders sponsoring a SAFe adoption
- Managers and directors who will charter and support ARTs
- Enterprise, solution, and system architects
- PMO, program, and process leaders
- Internal change agents and coaches driving the rollout
