LeSS 101: an introduction to agile scaling framework, Large Scale Scrum (LeSS)

Looking to scale agile in your organization with a heavy focus on scrum?
Join me in this video as I introduce you to agile scaling framework Large Scale Scrum (LeSS).
LeSS is important especially as it encourages:
- whole product instead of “my part.” Take holistic approach, Systems approach and optimize the whole. Local optimization alone would not help!
- Global and “end-to-end” product
==Abbreviations used
PBR = Product Backlog Refinement
mPBR = Master PBR
PO = Product Owner
aPO = Area Product Owner
tRT = Team (Sprint) Retrospective
tRV = Team (Sprint) Review
oRT = Overall Retrospective
oRV = Overall Review
SP1 = Sprint Planning 1
SP2 = Sprint Planning 2
FT = Feature Team
CT = Component Team
===One simple disclaimer..
I am using several abbreviations in this video that are not official terms used by LeSS framework
I am using these new abbreviations to make it easy for you to understand and visualize the concepts.
We also have limited space for the whiteboard to fit in all my awesome illustrations! And abbreviations help us conserve that valuable space
Once again, this is not official explanation of LeSS framework. This is just a quick fly by.

Thanks for this video, do you have more videos on LeSS? I’d like to watch.

[@nicholasdumas2862]

What is a good project management software that supports a large scale scrum? (alternatives to Jira)

[@AgileCoachingToolbox]

I would recommend Version One as a 'true' ALM tool. Jira is not an ALM, though it 'pretends' to be!
ALM=Agile Lifecycle Management
