Description

A Lean and Systems Thinking approach aligns strategy and execution, and helps in dynamic, adaptive planning that keeps up with the evolving dynamics of volatile markets. Even while being flexible enough to adopt changes, a successful Lean Portfolio Manager will be able to smoothly manage flow and solve overload problems—all while managing budgets, maintaining the portfolio vision, and keeping the roadmap in focus.

This 2-day training and certification will equip you with the skills to work across silos, equip teams with the right tools, and prioritize and organize around value to match customer needs and expectations. You'll learn how to establish Value Stream Budgets and Lean Budget Guardrails, and use the right metrics to gauge portfolio performances.

At the end of this course, you will get access to the SAFe Lean Portfolio Management certification exam on the SAFe Community platform. CyberBahn is a SAFe® SPCT Gold and Tooling Partner (1 of 3 companies world-wide to have this credential).
