What is SAFe® Lean Portfolio Management (LPM)
This training has the subtitle “Aligning strategy with execution”. And so it is about the connection between the (central) portfolio layer and the (decentralized) implementation. Because if you want to make the transformation to Lean Agile as an organization, then that is not limited to decentralized implementation. Change is also needed at the portfolio level!
Based on the SAFe framework, this training focuses on the three components of Lean Portfolio Management: Strategy and Investment Funding, Agile Portfolio Operations and Lean Governance. You will be provided with practical tools, such as working with a current and future portfolio canvas and the portfolio kanban. Of course we also discuss budgeting and measurement at portfolio level.
