- 3. Overview SAFe 5 includesan overview tab. This graphic provides a simplified view of SAFe’s Seven Core Competencies of the Lean Enterprise and their twenty-one dimensions that enable business agility. The focal point for all the competencies is the customer. Lean-Agile Leadership is the foundation. Measure and Grow at the top right is a reminder of periodic assessments needed to track the organization’s progress towards the principles and practices that enable business agility. This overview is a useful tool for providing an initial orientation to SAFe, introducing the business agility assessment, and framing executive briefings.
- 4. Team and TechnicalAgility The Team and Technical Agility competency describe the critical skills and Lean-Agile principles and practices that high-performing Agile teams and Teams of Agile teams use to create high-quality solutions for their customers. It consists of three dimensions

Enterprise Solution Delivery EnterpriseSolution Delivery competency describes how to apply Lean-Agile principles and practices to the specification, development, deployment, operation, and evolution of the world’s largest and most sophisticated software applications, networks, and cyber-physical systems. It consists of three dimensions.

- 8. Organizational Agility Even withthe competencies above, the enterprises must be able to change quickly to respond to the challenges and opportunities that today’s rapidly evolving markets present. This requires more flexibility and adaptability than the hierarchical operating system is likely to be able to muster. Again, we turn to the second operating system for help. SAFe helps businesses address these challenges with Organizational Agility, which is expressed in three dimensions
- 9. Continuous Learning Culture Toaddress the demand for continuous learning, growth of its people, and improvement in processes, the Continuous Learning Culture competency describes a set of values and practices that encourage individuals—and the enterprise as a whole—to continually increase knowledge, competence, performance, and innovation. It is expressed in three dimensions.
- 10. Lean-Agile Leadership Finally, werecognize that an organization’s managers, executives, and other leaders provide the foundation ultimately responsible for the adoption and success of Lean-Agile development and mastery of the competencies that lead to Business Agility. Leaders, therefore, must internalize and model leaner ways of thinking and operating so that team members will learn from their example, coaching, and encouragement. By helping leaders develop along three dimensions, organizations can establish the core competency of Lean-Agile Leadership.
