A Very Large Enterprise Agile Transformation: Lessons Learned at SalesforceTechWell
When the agile consultants leave, how do you ensure that the enterprise agile transformation sticks, evolves, and grows throughout the organization? What challenges will you face? What support must be in place to address the challenges? Like software products, the real cost of an agile transformation occurs after the initial rollout. Salesforce.com has sustained an enterprise agile transformation for more than seven years. Mike Register shares the major challenges Salesforce faced and how they addressed them―challenges that include scaling coaching within a very large enterprise (230 teams and growing rapidly) and effectively emphasizing the foundation principles behind the practices. Mike describes what has worked and not worked during their agile journey. He enumerates the primary support structures that need to be in place to support long term enterprise agile transformation. Mike also explores the cultural and leadership aspects necessary to support large scale agile adoption that sticks.
10 Essential SAFe(tm) patterns you should focus on when scaling AgileYuval Yeret
Scaling agile can be overwhelming. In this tutorial, Yuval will provide an overview of the ten essential SAFe patterns, and highlight the diagnostic symptoms that appear when the patterns aren’t in place. Attendees will develop a personal “flash assessment” of their current work context and will be able to identify to “inspect and adapt” areas for improvement. They will also learn how to use this sort of assessment/patterns during their scaled agile journey.
(This includes the Essential SAFe assessment toolkit provided by ScaledAgile)

In this presentation, Alex Yakyma will talk about practical aspects of SAFe rollouts in large Value Streams and Portfolios. Alex will provide numerous examples and practical advice to leaders and change agents that are about to start or are in the middle of their SAFe rollout.
Mohammed Khalid, Senior Solutions Engineer at LeanKit, presented Using Kanban to Visualize Your Work - What it means and why its important at the Pink16 conference on February 16, 2016.
Do you have highly functional scrum teams but are wondering how to get them to work in sync with each other, or wondering how get "start-up" efficiency in a large enterprise? Or maybe you just heard that the Scaled Agile Framework for the Enterprise (SAFe®) is gaining traction and you want to find out more about it. Before the year is out, we want to give you a primer on SAFe, so you can decide if it should be on your list of resolutions for the new year!
We continue to see that Agile and Scrum deliver value and are catching the eyes of leadership individuals. But how does a large enterprise thrive with a Scrum framework that was made for 5-9 individuals? SAFe has garnered a lot of attention as a potential framework for enterprises with large product teams (5 or more scrum teams on a product line). It calls for the overall alignment throughout the organization so that the Scrum teams making up a large product development team can deliver valuable, high quality product increments with transparency and technical excellence. The program execution is achieved by leveraging the existing Scrum Team practices and interfacing with the higher Program and Portfolio layers in the organization.
cPrime SAFe coach, Sri will provide an overview of the SAFe framework and show why it appeals not only to the engineers and architects, but also to the product management, customer support and the executive team.
Presenter:
Dr. Gail Ferreira, Agile Practice Leader, MATRIX Resources, San Francisco Center of Excellence
Rapid scale directly impacts all levels of decision-making, planning, execution, culture, and communications for executives in hypergrowth companies. In this session, we will discuss how to organize, support, and tailor agile practices for teams and sub-teams in companies with a rapid growth cycle. We will share contemporary case studies of hypergrowth companies who have delivered agile at scale.
Topics will include:
• Basic agile and lean methods
• Scrum of Scrums
• SAFe
• Disciplined Agile Delivery (DAD)
• Agility at Scale (Ambler/Lines)
• Spotify model (Tribes, Squads, Chapters & Guilds, DSDM).
Why Agile Fail. *Hint* -it's more than just processTasktop
Presented by Zubin Irani, CEO, cPrime & Scot Garrison, Director of Professional Services, Tasktop
A successful Agile transformation requires a combination of people, process and technology, but too often these aspects are treated separately. Agile Coaches insist on remaining tool agnostic, and the agile management software experts often do not know the Agile process. Organizations with successful Agile teams often fail to replicate this success when they attempt to scale these practices throughout the software delivery organization.
To succeed in transforming to Agile, organizations must replace this fragmented approach with one that connects the entire application lifecycle with tools that are tightly integrated and automated to support processes. Join us as we demonstrate how this unified approach allows companies to
speed delivery through real-time collaboration
increase visibility of project status and compliance with cross tool traceability and reporting
encourage the use of specialized tools that support practitioners’ process.
Large Scale Agile Transformation by Husni RoukbiAgile ME
The agile manifesto introduced a new way of implementing software development projects which resulted in a dramatic improvement in these types of projects. Agile success at the project level has prompted IT leaders within organization to try to scale it to the enterprise level with less success rate. In this interactive session, we will review the various approaches to large-scale agile transformation, discuss the transformation road map and organizational change management required as well as key drivers/sponsors required for a successful agile transformation. We will discuss how to measure transformation progress, and outline possible challenges and corresponding solutions.
Abstract:
More and more organizations are realizing that in order to achieve business agility they need to go beyond implementing agile in specific teams/projects. Real agility requires scaling agile to the program/portfolio/enterprise level. In this session we will explore the options organizations have when looking to scale agile, with an emphasis on SAFe(tm) - the Scaled Agile Framework - one of the most popular options these days.
Learning Objectives:
• When does it make sense to Scale Agile
• What are the leading scaling approaches
• An introduction to SAFe's Big Picture and implementation configurations
• How to implement SAFe - The Implementation Roadmap
• Typical Results of implementing SAFe
• Key risks/red flags to be aware of when implementing SAFe

Most Agile adoptions put emphasis on training team members or specific roles. Having a group of “agile” teams does not provide the holistic change that is required within an organization looking to improve by adopting Agile, Scrum or Lean practices.Organizational Agility requires culture and paradigm shifts, changing the way work is approached, tackling impediments that are transparently exposed and in many cases, restructuring. Many organization leaders and managers say “this sounds great but where do I get started”? Join us for this session on how leaders can pragmatically begin the shift from traditional management to Agile management, enabling self-organization and becoming designers of the new environments that many organizations need to create in order for a successful Agile transformation.
Remote Working in a SAFe Environment: Collaborative Online Meetings and Fully...Cprime
While both the Agile manifesto and SAFe highlight the benefits of face-to-face communication, it has often been the case that organizations need to work remotely. The reasons for this can be varied – it may be due to very large teams in highly distributed locations, extensive travel time and cost commitments, or even as the result of unplanned travel restrictions, such as those being currently experienced.
This last scenario has led to a fully remote situation, where everyone is working from a separate location, interacting with colleagues through the use of technology.
This can lead to certain challenges, and in this webinar we will share guidance for successfully facilitating a fully distributed PI Planning event and leading collaborative online meetings.
In this Webinar, experts Andrew Sales (Scaled Agile), and Mike Carew (Cprime) will cover the following:
*Guiding the necessary behaviors for remote working with a Lean-Agile mindset
*Techniques for leading collaborative online meetings
*Overcoming pitfalls and success patterns for remote events
*Preparing and facilitating a successful, fully distributed PI Planning
*Recent experiences from Scaled Agile and their first remote PI Planning
The SAFe 5.0 white paper provides an overview of the Framework, the Big Picture graphic, the seven core competencies, and the values, mindset, principles, and practices that guide teams to more effectively build solutions in a far leaner—and more Agile—fashion.
Building Quality In in SAFe – The Testing Organization’s Perspective Yuval Yeret
SAFe emphasizes Building Quality In. We will take a deep dive into how this looks from a testing organization’s perspective and what does a SAFe implementation mean for Testing/QA professionals. We will map SAFe’s approach to best practices in the “”Agile Testing”” world. We will look at examples from the real world of how traditional testing organizations shift left and evolve towards continuous testing.
Learning Objectives and Key Takeaways:
Understand how best practices from the “”Agile Testing”” world map to SAFe’s context
Learn ideas and patterns for evolving Testing/QA’s role during a SAFe implementation
Understand how Test-Driven looks like and how techniques like Acceptance-Test-Driven-Design/Behavior-Driven
Development can empower testers as well as improve the flow on SAFe agile teams.
See how SAFe’s principles can be used to guide the evolution towards a lean/agile testing organization

Agile innovation and Thinking Like a StartupChris Chan
Many enterprises are struggling to innovate whilst smaller startups are disrupting the market. Existing organisational business models work well in a known and predictable environment. However, these approaches fail when applied to an uncertain and changing environment.
In this session I will discuss the different approaches and how an organisation can balance a portfolio that both can exploit existing opportunities while enable the exploration of new opportunities.
I will draw on my experience working with some innovation teams in an enterprise and how we are re-focusing agile back to its roots and thinking like a startup to evolve the way we work.
Participants will also gain an understanding how Design Thinking/Human Centred Design, Lean Startup, Agile and Business Model Innovation can blended together to transform the way you work to enable innovation within larger enterprises.

There in an obsessions to jump to implementation of CI, CD tools when we talk about DevOps. In this talk, I focus on the many aspects that one needs to focus on when going on a DevOps journey
Agile Gurugram 2017 | DevOps > CI + CD | Sudipta LahiriAgileNetwork
Title: DevOps > CI + CD
Abstract:DevOps has been gaining traction across all software teams across organization. Most teams focus on two specific areas: a) Tools deployment around CI and CD b) Culture integration between Development and Operations teams.
In this talk, we will revisit, in brief, some of the reasons for DevOps. We will discuss some of the Critical Success Factors and detail some specific approaches that should be a part of any team’s DevOps strategy. We will discuss testing and branching strategies, including handling databases, CI and Infrastructure strategies. We will highlight anti-patterns in each of these areas so that teams may consciously take steps that will drive them away from the DevOps objectives.
Kanban was originally created as a scheduling system to help manufacturing organizations determine what to produce, when to produce it, and how much to produce. Although this may not sound like software development, these lean principles can be successfully applied to development teams to improve the delivery of value through better visibility and limits on work in process.
This webinar will provide an overview of the Kanban method, including the history and motivation, the core principles and practices, and how these apply to efficiency and process improvement in software development.

SAFe – A dangerous weapon: Techniques for implementing a lasting adoption of ...Yuval Yeret
The Scaled Agile Framework (SAFe) is a powerful and popular framework for implementing agile at large scale across the enterprise. In this talk we will examine some dangerous implementation anti-patterns as well as healthier alternatives. You will learn some concrete techniques that help live up to the Lean/SAFe principles of respecting and engaging people. We will discuss field-proven ideas such as pull-based crossing the chasm approach to implementation, use of Open Space as part of the different SAFe ceremonies, and how OpenSpace Agility can combine with SAFe.
In a world where the there is no perfect visualisation, WiP limit, policy or measures? A good choice depends on the context. There aren't only one answer, but in my experience good questions could help to guide to your answer.
Agile 2013 - Lean Change for Enabling Agile TransformationsAlexis Hui
Experience report summarizing our experiences with agile transformation in mid-large sized IT organizations and challenges we faced with current methods available. As a result, we saw a need for a better change approach to help us and others in the agile community with agile transformations. Borrowing thinking and tools from Lean Startup, Kanban and Kotter we have defined a structured framework known as Lean Change. The premise behind our thinking is that successful agile transformation requires learning and feedback as the keys for success. Lean Change is founded on three concepts, co-creation of changes through negotiated change, experiment based objectives using minimum viable changes, and validated learning to guide changes through a structured validation lifecycle.

Memorandum Of Association Constitution of Company.pptseri bangash
www.seribangash.com
A Memorandum of Association (MOA) is a legal document that outlines the fundamental principles and objectives upon which a company operates. It serves as the company's charter or constitution and defines the scope of its activities. Here's a detailed note on the MOA:
Contents of Memorandum of Association:
Name Clause: This clause states the name of the company, which should end with words like "Limited" or "Ltd." for a public limited company and "Private Limited" or "Pvt. Ltd." for a private limited company.
https://seribangash.com/article-of-association-is-legal-doc-of-company/
Registered Office Clause: It specifies the location where the company's registered office is situated. This office is where all official communications and notices are sent.
Objective Clause: This clause delineates the main objectives for which the company is formed. It's important to define these objectives clearly, as the company cannot undertake activities beyond those mentioned in this clause.
www.seribangash.com
Liability Clause: It outlines the extent of liability of the company's members. In the case of companies limited by shares, the liability of members is limited to the amount unpaid on their shares. For companies limited by guarantee, members' liability is limited to the amount they undertake to contribute if the company is wound up.
https://seribangash.com/promotors-is-person-conceived-formation-company/
Capital Clause: This clause specifies the authorized capital of the company, i.e., the maximum amount of share capital the company is authorized to issue. It also mentions the division of this capital into shares and their respective nominal value.
Association Clause: It simply states that the subscribers wish to form a company and agree to become members of it, in accordance with the terms of the MOA.
Importance of Memorandum of Association:
Legal Requirement: The MOA is a legal requirement for the formation of a company. It must be filed with the Registrar of Companies during the incorporation process.
Constitutional Document: It serves as the company's constitutional document, defining its scope, powers, and limitations.
Protection of Members: It protects the interests of the company's members by clearly defining the objectives and limiting their liability.
External Communication: It provides clarity to external parties, such as investors, creditors, and regulatory authorities, regarding the company's objectives and powers.
https://seribangash.com/difference-public-and-private-company-law/
Binding Authority: The company and its members are bound by the provisions of the MOA. Any action taken beyond its scope may be considered ultra vires (beyond the powers) of the company and therefore void.
Amendment of MOA:
While the MOA lays down the company's fundamental principles, it is not entirely immutable. It can be amended, but only under specific circumstances and in compliance with legal procedures. Amendments typically require shareholder
