Ken Schwaber - Co-creator, Scrum process

The move is on. More and more organizations are abandoning waterfall and opting for agility. The benefits are overwhelming, documented by Standish Group, the GAO, and DOD. Lately, two approaches to becoming agile have emerged.

One is SAFe (Scaled Agile Framework), an agile template that can somewhat readily be overlaid on existing organizational structures. Adopting it provides agility.

The other is CIF (Continuous Improvement Framework), which requires organizational change driven by the organization itself, optimizing its particular effectiveness. CIF is aimed at optimizing value.

Ken will provide an overview of both and help organizations understand their alternatives.
