Advancing Scrum Master servant leadership with the Scaled Agile Framework®
Summary
This two-day SAFe Advanced Scrum Master course prepares you, a current Scrum Master, for your leadership role in facilitating the Agile team, program, and enterprise success in a Scaled Agile Framework (SAFe) implementation. The training program covers the facilitation of cross-team interactions in support of program execution and relentless improvement. It enhances your knowledge of the Scrum paradigm with an introduction to scalable engineering and DevOps practices and the application of Kanban to facilitate the flow of value. You’ll also learn about supporting interactions with architects, product management, and other critical stakeholders in the more extensive program and enterprise contexts. The SAFe Advanced Scrum Master training program provides you with the actionable tools you need to build high-performing teams and explores practical ways of addressing Agile and Scrum anti-patterns in the enterprise. After taking the SAFe Advanced Scrum Master exam, you’ll certify as a SAFe Advanced Scrum Master (SASM).
Matt Wyman is a software engineering professional with over 25 years’ experience in the IT, Retail, Financial Services, Healthcare, and Airlines industries. Matt’s career spans leadership and consulting roles in Software Engineering at companies including NCR, IBM, Delta Airlines, Kaplan, McKesson, and Merrill Lynch.
He has led both small team-level agile adoption efforts as well as large scaled agile transformations at the enterprise level.
Matt is an enthusiast and student of best practices, and enjoys leveraging his experiences as a development practitioner, consultant, and coach to help bridge the gap between Lean-Agile theory and the messy complex dynamics of applying it in the real world.
