About this training

Connect strategy and execution with Lean Portfolio Management. Over two days, you will learn to align investment decisions, value streams and portfolio flow, and explore how LPM can be applied in your own organisation.

How do you ensure that portfolio decisions support your business strategy? And how do you maintain visibility of value, investment and progress? Lean Portfolio Management helps you address these questions as part of a connected system.

During the training, you will examine how LPM works within a SAFe organisation and how strategy, budgeting, portfolio flow and performance fit together. In a workshop, you will apply these concepts to your own organisation.

What you’ll learn

After the training, you will be able to align a Lean portfolio with business strategy.

You will also be able to:

  • Understand and apply Lean-Agile budgeting.
  • Support portfolio flow with Portfolio Kanban.
  • Coordinate value streams and measure LPM performance.
  • Develop an initial view of how LPM could be applied in your organisation.
