A common question when looking at the SAFe Big Picture has been “Where’s the Customer?” and until now, the Customer has been represented by a small icon far up to the right. Not anymore!
With the launch of SAFe 5.0, one of the major changes to the Framework has been the introduction of Design Thinking and Customer Centricity - putting the Customer left, right, and center of everything an organization does.
Join Tina Behers, Director, Business Agility, and Jesse Pearlman, Business Agility Coach, as we explore:
*How to gain a clear enterprise understanding of Design Thinking/Customer Centricity
*How Jira Align supports the concept of Design Thinking/Customer Centricity with the Product Module
*How the value of Design Thinking/Customer Centricity is delivered

Lean Portfolio Strategy Part 3: Epic Management - Take the ExitsCprime
Organizations might have set up all the process steps for portfolio flow: the monthly strategic portfolio review, the portfolio kanban, even the lean business case. But, they are still not getting the idea that small, testable, constantly evaluated initiatives are what really increase your output of value to the customer and put you way ahead of the competition.
In part 1 of this webinar we explored how signs of imitation LPM show up in an organization’s approach to strategy. In part 2, we covered how to organize around value streams with examples of successful LPM.
Now, in this third webinar in our Lean Portfolio Management series we’ll join Cprime's Michiko Quinones (Jira Align Consultant), Jean Dahl (General Manager, Scaled Agility), & Neha Tiwari (Business Agility Portfolio Consultant) to learn techniques to:
Question performing work that doesn't clearly align to your organization's strategy
Develop a process that makes things smaller and testable when it comes to initiative creation and management
Build a culture that allows work to stop if it's not going to meet its intended purpose
Make sure that you are "thinking lean," rather than just "doing lean"
A simple deck outlining the Lean Value Tree: A Product Strategy Map. shows alignment to a company mission, separating the Strategic Map from the Tactical Idea alignment and validation.
Profitably Introduction for AccountantsGraham Siener
We've heard lots of feedback from managed accounting services that they are afraid to give their clients access to the QB file but end up running lots of reports when the client wants some piece of information.
At Profitably, we're actually building a hosted analytics solution that sits on top of QuickBooks so that the CPA maintains the QB file but reports/recommendations are available via the web in real time.

Practical Product Management for new Product ManagersAmarpreet Kalkat
This presentation provides tips and tools for a professional who is new to Product Management function (in software).
It does not cover the full lifecycle of a product and primarily focuses on the product development/product building phase. As such, it is more usable for professionals working on existing products than for those in the process of building new products from scratch.
When Agile teams begin to deliver products incrementally, new opportunities open up at the portfolio level to deliver strategic business value. However, the traditional approach to portfolio management — which depends on long-range forecasting and fixed financial controls — breaks down as business environments grow more complex, leaving portfolio managers ill-equipped to reap the potential benefits of their Agile programs.
SolutionsIQ Managing Director John Rudd and Dave West, Chief Product Officer at Tasktop, discuss active portfolio management from a product management point of view and how it can help guide decision making in an Agile enterprise.

2. We build tech products, but usually the hard part is not the tech, but the people. Different teams with different agendas, “irrational" decision-making, feature requests coming out of nowhere, lack of strategic direction. If you’ve read this far, you know the drill.
3. “Unpack” these problems and share battle-tested tools that have helped me in my work as a PM and consultant, and that I hope are useful to you as well.

Regional innovation program operating model strawman v1Eric Tachibana
This document is a Request for Comment.
By way of background, the document came about as I was preparing to teach a course on “Organizing for Innovation” in an MBA class called “Technological Innovation.”
As I was reading through the material, it occurred to me that I was having a hard time finding practical advice on how one would realistically setup a holistic Innovation Program. There was lots of, “best practice advice”, but little concrete models.
In the field, I’d seen several companies try to roll out Innovation Programs, but because they only focused on one small part (such as Ideation), the programs ultimately failed to deliver real business results. My hypothesis was that you cannot run a Corporate Entrepreneurship program piecemeal, it needs to be holistic.
So the basic question is: Suppose you had to build the ideal holistic innovation program from the ground up for a large company / MNC. At some point, you would need to define a tangible operating model with specific streams of work against which, you would staff actual people. The Operating Model would need to cover the scope of the functions and a set of activities to deliver against goals over Period X. So what would the Operating Model look like?
This deck is a strawman.
PS: I also happen to be in Asia Pacific, so my context is a regional organization in a global MNC.
Enterprise Dojos: Values, Principles, and Cultural PerspectiveCprime
When we talk about dojos there’s a tendency to focus on the mechanical aspects of the model — the workflow, method, short iterations, and immersive learning. Perhaps more important is understanding what models and principles actually make the dojo innovative and successful. In this webinar, our dojo experts will unpack the foundations of the dojo — the underlying models that make it work, the principles that guide our behaviors and choices, and how dojos help shift cultures from fixating on delivery to leveraging learning.
You will learn about:
- Theories and research that make the dojo model work: deliberate practice, spaced repetition, etc.
- What are the values and principles that are common to successful dojos
- How dojos help shift an organization from a culture of delivery to a culture of learning
In this session presented at Tools4AgileTeams 2-12-2021, we discussed some necessary building blocks to make the critical changes associated with an agile transformation helping to de-risk the organization's agile journey.
