Business Agility in Banking: How Easy Can It Be?
Banking is a highly regulated business, and most of the large banks have traditions that can easily become a major impediment to new ways of working and thinking.
When:
December 7, 2022, 1:00 pm – December 7, 2022, 2:00 pm ECT
Companies in the financial sector are also extremely aware of risk and financial risk management is one of the very regulated areas one has to take into account when changing the way of working.
In this webinar, Audrey Boydston and Mats will share some experiences in a dialog and discussion, as well as answer your questions.

Business Agility sets new performance standards for organizations, requiring fast, effective responses to emerging opportunities. This changes what we measure, how we measure, and what we do with the data we receive. Measurement becomes a critical enabler of continuous business performance improvement. Our new approach to metrics includes three domains: Outcomes, Flow, and Competency. This session will provide an overview of this comprehensive measurement model and explore how it can be applied across Teams, ARTs, and Portfolios.
In this session you will learn how to: * Define Outcome, Flow, and Competency metrics for measuring teams, ARTs, Solution Trains, and entire SAFe Portfolios * Use the insights generated to support better decision-making and help to identify opportunities for improvement * Recognize common success patterns for effective measurement, along with pitfalls to be aware of
