    Join Fred Champlain (Agile Evangelist) and Doug Page on this podcast episode as they discuss the value of Scaled Agile Framework (SAFe) and how to launch a SAFe transformation in your organization. Businesses have always been planning. However, as technology quickly evolves, organizations need to accelerate their processes to test, design, develop, and deliver software. SAFe enables organizations to be more efficient and deliver value faster to respond to volatile market conditions. Scaled Agile Framework is a collection of organizational and workflow values, constructs, and practices used to implement agile practices at an enterprise level. By transforming the planning approach from traditional (waterfall) to Agile, businesses have shorter timeframes to build smaller amounts of work. This allows them to be more customer-centric by having more check-ins to ensure they're building products that customers really want. To learn more, you can watch our webinar Using the Scaled Agile Framework to drive global digital marketing. You can also read our eBook or blog to further explore SAFe.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
