In this informative session, we delve into the crucial differences between project and product approaches within the Scaled Agile Framework (SAFe). Discover why SAFe is predominantly designed for a product-centric, rather than project-centric, way of working. This video is ideal for project managers, agile practitioners, and individuals transitioning from traditional project backgrounds to agile environments, particularly those enrolled in SAFe classes.

Learn about the challenges and opportunities that arise when integrating SAFe into project management. Understand the essence of business agility, product and solution development, and how SAFe supports aligning development groups with organizational strategies, particularly in banking and IT sectors.

We discuss the "Essential SAFe" configuration, ideal for organizations adopting a more agile approach without fully abandoning the project model, and how it facilitates collaboration among multiple agile teams. The session also covers contractual and operational nuances when using SAFe in vendor-client relationships and the absence of traditional project management roles in the framework.

Join us as we explore practical insights on applying SAFe in various organizational contexts, and how it can shift from a project to a product-focused approach. Share your experiences or questions in the comments, or reach out to be part of our podcast series on SAFe applications in different settings.
