How Do We Keep Pace?
‣ Increasing system complexity; worldwide
competition, distributed teams
‣ Software is eating our world. Agile shows great
promise, but was developed for small teams
‣ Lean hardware and product development shows
promise too, but it’s mostly ethereal principles,
not practices
‣ We need a new approach-one that
harnesses the power of Lean and Agile
and applies to the needs of those building
complex applications and systems
Our development methods are not keeping pace

The Management Challenge
If you can’t change the system, who can?
It is not enough that management
commit themselves to quality and
productivity, they must know what it
is they must do.
Such a responsibility cannot be
delegated.
—W. Edwards Deming

Why the Focus on Principles?
A Lean-Agile transformation will deliver
substantial benefits
But it is a significant change and every
implementation is different
Leaders should understand why the practices
deliver the results they do; its part of “knowing
what it is they must do”
If a practice needs to change, leaning on the
principles will assure the change moves the
enterprise forward, not backward
SAFe is based on nine immutable Lean-Agile Principles

SAFe Lean-Agile Principles
Take an economic view
Apply systems thinking
Assume variability; preserve options
Build incrementally with fast, integrated learning cycles
Base milestones on objective evaluation of working systems
Visualize and limit WIP, reduce batch sizes, and manage queue lengths
Apply cadence, synchronize with cross-domain planning
Unlock the intrinsic motivation of knowledge workers
Decentralize decision-making

Clarity on how to think, without clarity on
how to act, leaves people unmoved.
—Dan Pink
Principles are great, but…
Unless principles are embodied in practices,
people won’t necessarily know what to do

Organize Around Value: Software Systems
Value doesn’t recognize organizational
or geographic boundaries
Organize your ARTs around the Value Streams you have
Software Systems
Value Streams deliver solutions

Leadership
People are already doing
their best; the problems are
with the system.
Only management can
change the system.
‣ Lead the change
‣ Know the way;
emphasize life-long learning
‣ Develop people
‣ Inspire and align with mission;
minimize constraints
‣ Decentralize decision-making
‣ Unlock the intrinsic motivation of
knowledge workers

VALUE
—W. Edwards Deming
32 © 2015 Scaled Agile, Inc. All Rights Reserved
Respect for People and Culture
‣ People do all the work
‣ Your customer is whomever
consumes your work
‣Don’t overload them
‣Don’t make them wait
‣Don’t force them to do wasteful work
‣Don’t impose wishful thinking
‣ Build long-term partnerships
based on trust
‣ Cultural change comes last,
not first
‣ To change the culture, you have to
change the organization
Culture eats strategy
for breakfast.

Change is Hard
1. Allowing too much complacency
2. Failure to create a sufficiently powerful guiding coalition
3. Underestimating the power of vision
4. Under-communicating the power of vision by 10-100 X
5. Permitting obstacles to block the new vision
6. Failure to create short term wins
7. Declaring victory too soon
8. Neglecting to anchor changes firmly in the corporate
culture
No one else can do it for you.
Beware the Eight Big Mistakes.
