OKR divides the classical goals into Objectives and Key Results. Objectives set a goal in a similar way to a vision – abstract, polarizing and highly motivating. They pick up the employee on the emotional level and secure his commitment to the goal. Key Results have the task of making the objective measurable and showing how the objective can be achieved.

The OKR-System at first sight gives the impression of being uncomplicated. Unfortunately, there are many companies that are frustrated when they try to apply OKRs in practice. Often companies, teams and individuals fall into the classic mistakes of the past and end up in the so-called “cosmetic agility”. Even if the dynamics behind OKR seem to be very simple, it is important to have an experienced OKR coach guiding the introduction.

Within this two-day workshop we will take a practical look at the concept of OKRs, we will give helpful guidance on how OKRs can help companies, and we will look at the key factors for a successful OKR implementation.

Agenda:

• Fundamentals of OKR
• Difference between qualitative objectives and quantitative, measurable key results
• Introduction to Toyota Kata Concept
• With the help of a real case or an example from work practice, we formulate concrete OKRs together as a team and show how to use Objectives & Key Results for agile leadership correctly
• Presentation of an OKR cycle based on practical examples from the industry
• Development of a plan for the successful implementation of OKR
• Numerous tips, tricks & tools on how to use the method successfully in your business context.

 The online workshop language will be English.

In this two-day course, attendees will gain an understanding of the role of a Scrum Master in a SAFe enterprise. Unlike traditional Scrum Master training that focuses on the fundamentals of team-level Scrum, the SAFe Scrum Master course explores the role of the Scrum Master in the context of the entire enterprise, and prepares attendees to successfully plan and execute the Program Increment (PI), the primary enabler of alignment throughout all levels of a SAFe organization. This includes learning the key components of Agile at scale development, how Scrum is facilitated throughout the enterprise, and how to execute Iteration Planning. Attendees will also discover how to build high performing Agile teams by becoming a servant leader and coach, and how to coach those teams to deliver the maximum business value at scale. SAFe 5.0 Scrum Master (SSM) certification signifies that people are prepared to perform the role of Scrum Master in a SAFe environment, increasing their value to teams and organizations that are implementing SAFe.

Learning Goals

To perform the role of a SAFe® Scrum Master, attendees should be able to:

• Describe Scrum in a SAFe enterprise
• Facilitate Scrum events
• Facilitate effective Iteration execution
• Support effective Program Increment execution
• Support relentless improvement
• Coach Agile teams for maximum business results
• Support DevOps implementation

SAFe® for Teams is about establishing Team Agility for Agile Release Trains With SAFe® 5.0 Practitioner Certification.

Build the skills needed to become a high-performing team member of an Agile Release Train (ART)—and learn how to collaborate effectively with other teams—by becoming a SAFe® 5.0 Practitioner (SP). During this two-day course, attendees will gain an in-depth understanding of the ART, how it delivers value, and what they can do to effectively perform their role using Scrum, Kanban, and XP.

They will also learn how to write stories and break down features, plan and execute iterations, and plan Program Increments. Finally, they’ll learn about the continuous delivery pipeline and DevOps culture, how to effectively integrate with other teams in the program, and what it takes to continuously improve the train.

Learning Goals
