Welcome back to Part II of our series covering Scaled Agile Framework. As a quick refresher, I’m a lead consultant at Keyhole Software, and for the past year, I’ve been helping my client adopt SAFe methodologies and practices. I’ve certainly learned a lot, and I want to share that knowledge with you.

Last time in Part I, I gave an overview of SAFe and discussed the four core values: Alignment, Transparency, Respect for People, and Relentless Improvement. Today, we’ll dive a little deeper, talking through SAFe’s ten core principles. Next time in the third and final installment, we’ll take a practical look at the pros and cons of SAFe and some tips for implementing it.
