Applying the Scrum Master role within a SAFe 6 enterprise.
Summary
In this two-day course, attendees 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 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 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.
Dr. Baxter’s extensive experience and skills in Agile methodologies and IT leadership have enabled him to successfully transition teams from Waterfall to Agile methodologies, resulting in significant cost savings and improved team productivity.
His expertise in various Agile frameworks, including Scrum, KanBan, SAFe, LeSS, Spotify, and Scrum at Scale, coupled with his proficiency in engineering practices, has enhanced business operations and improved team morale. As a seasoned senior IT leader with over twenty-five (25) years of professional IT experience, he has served as an Agile Consultant, Enterprise Agile Coach, Scrum Master, SAFe Program Consultant, Product Owner, and Director of IT in various domains.
