SAFe Isn’t Dead—It’s Getting Smarter: Leading with Outcomes

Synopsis

Forget the doom and gloom—SAFe® isn’t fading, it’s focusing. As organizations grow more selective about how they invest in agility, the emphasis is shifting toward solving real business problems, faster. This talk explores how SAFe is evolving to meet these demands, and how practitioners can continue to create value by focusing on outcomes, leadership, and adaptability. The age of massive coaching armies may be behind us, but the need for smart, outcome-driven SAFe implementations has never been stronger.
