Up Your Agile Game

Starting from a background in Traditional Project Management where Faith saw how several factors such as: slow changes that meant loss of competitive edge, failure at User Acceptance Testing, moving people to projects, which led to temporary team assignments and a loss of opportunity to build high performing teams, top-down, command and control management which hindered psychological safety and stifled innovation, Faith was not convinced that this sequential, phase-gated approach which measured progress as task completion was the way to go. By a stroke of luck, Faith eventually came across Agile and was enthralled as it resonated deeply with her beliefs about the value of people on a team, the fact that power should shift to where knowledge lies, the outcome of benefit hypothesis being the measure of progress, alongside fast, customer focused delivery. A few years later, she came across SAFe which is where it all comes together; all the elements that are required for exceptional product delivery; Agile, Lean Product Development, Systems Thinking and DevOps to form the amazing framework for building state of the art solutions in complex environments.

SAFe Product Manager

As a result of this journey, Up Your Agile Game is Faith’s brainchild focused on helping individuals and organizations who wish to grow their solution development knowledge, and to explore the different success options that the SAFe framework has to offer. SAFe offers a way for enterprises to focus on customers, products, innovation, and growth by organizing the second operating system around Value Streams instead of departments. In addition, this operating system provides the flexibility that Business Agility demands. Built on time-tested Lean, Agile, and SAFe practices, this system can organize and reorganize without completely disrupting the existing hierarchy.

As an astute reader and learner, Faith intends to harness all of her industry knowledge to ensure that her clients get the support they need, not just to design the right Scaled Agile implementation, or to get the appropriate certification, but to begin to excel and stand-out in their industry and chosen fields of endeavor.

Up Your Agile Game has a wide-range of courses to offer and Faith would be more than willing to work with clients to choose what workshop or certification is best for them based on their position in the SAFe implementation roadmap.
