Description

The Scaled Agile Framework (SAFe®) is widely recognized as an eff ective methodology for implementing Agile practices at the Enterprise level. However, the complexity of SAFe® can make it challenging for Teams and organizations to determine which practices can be safely adapted to their unique needs. Although SAFe® is a framework rather than a set of rules, promoting adaptation, it’s crucial to understand why SAFe® practices are designed the way they are along with the consequences of modifying them. The SAFe® Coaches Handbook is a comprehensive resource that goes beyond a how-to guide, providing a deep understanding of SAFe® principles and practices. The chapters are designed in a way to teach you how to successfully implement SAFe® in your organization and eff ectively manage the Team’s Backlog while avoiding common pitfalls. You’ll discover optimal ways to create SAFe® Teams and run successful Events. You’ll also learn how to plan Agile Release Trains (ARTs), manage the ART Backlog, conduct PI Planning, and grasp the importance of Value Stream Identifi cation in driving value delivery. By the end of this book, you’ll be armed with practical tips and advice to help you successfully customize the Scaled Agile Framework to your Enterprise’s needs while preserving the aspects that make it work successfully.

The SAFe® Coaches Handbook is an extremely valuable resource for anyone considering or using the SAFe framework to guide an agile transformation. While called a ‘coaches handbook’, anyone from dev team member to executive sponsor will find it useful. With the real-life examples and ‘pro tips’ throughout, it’s much more than a reference book. It’s a go-to source for answers to the problems that will inevitably occur on any agile transformation. Even if you’re not using SAFe, this book has great insights and ideas and needs to be on your desk.

SAFe can be a daunting framework to coach. The coaches handbook helps bring it home with practical guidance for every aspect of the SAFe framework. As a coach, the tips in here give you steps on setting up and sustaining everything from building a release train to the day to day workings of the release train. The authors show how to effectively measure, run events, and work with leadership. I like how these tips are all in one place as a reference. Highly recommend this book to agile coaches using SAFe or anyone that is using SAFe and wants to find ways to improve their practice.
