Dean Leffingwell, creator of the Scaled Agile Framework (SAFe), will be providing a brief overview of SAFe, highlighting its key underlying principles, core values, and brief descriptions of the Team, Program and Portfolio levels.
In virtually every industry, larger enterprises are struggling to ‘adapt’ an agile approach that fits their environment.
What does this mean for Business Analysts?
It means it’s now critical that you know how to separate the myths from the realities when it comes to making agile work in an enterprise environment. This webinar will help you do just that.
Here’s a sneak peak of the 7 misconceptions we’ll explore on the webinar:
• Misconception #3) Agile will free us from having to do requirements up front
• Misconception #5) User stories alone are adequate to support compliance and audit
• Misconception #6) Business Analysis is an “organizational drag”
“Pure” agile approaches don’t simply “plug” into the enterprise environment as easily as they do in smaller organizations and centrally located teams. This webinar explores common misconceptions of agile specifically in the enterprise, so you can understand the real ways in which enterprise agile can help make Business Analysis and requirements authoring easier and more effective leading to better project outcomes with far less rework along the way.
** Eligible for PDUs, CDUs. **
