Each Monday, SAFe Connect introduces one of our members. On Wednesday, we ask them to share a practical insight or ritual that keeps their teams moving forward. This week, Holger Garbas offers three takeaways you can use to stay grounded and effective in complex SAFe environments.
1. Organize Around Value.
“Take Principle #10—Organize around value—very seriously. Align all agile processes and roles with it. Don’t simply map existing hierarchies into the framework.”
2. Find a Trusted Sparring Partner
“My personal recommendation: Find a mentor or sparring partner you trust completely—someone you can discuss all matters of SAFe with openly.”
3. Just Do It, Together.
“You will never know if your plan works until you act. In agile, you’re never alone. Even when things don’t go perfectly, you can solve the problem together.”
