Webinar: Agile Portfolio Management with SAFe®

Are you and your organization already working with agile portfolio management—or considering taking the step? Are you looking for inspiration or practical knowledge sharing about agile portfolio management? Do your projects and teams still struggle to handle change and deliver continuous value—even though you’re using Scrum?

Then it might be time to change the framework around your teams. This is where portfolio management comes into play. The way we define and realize a portfolio of strategic initiatives affects how agile our teams can truly become.

In some cases, teams succeed despite a traditional approach to portfolio management—but more often, they quickly run into obstacles they can’t remove on their own.

At this meetup, our SAFe® instructor Mette Bruhn-Pedersen and Malene Dores Amstrup will talk about how agile portfolio management with SAFe® differs from a more traditional approach. Many of the same things still need to happen—but how you do them is very different.

Agenda

• Introduction
• Presentation on traditional vs. agile portfolio management by Malene Dores Amstrup and Mette Bruhn-Pedersen
• Knowledge sharing in either plenary or smaller groups, depending on the number of participants
• Summary and closing discussion in plenary
