Course summary:

Quickly delivering value and innovating in ever-faster cycle times has become a key differentiator between good and great enterprises. Large product-development organizations are turning to agile principles and large-scale Scrum to sustainably deliver that innovation at a fast pace.

The key questions many large product development organizations face are:


How to apply what works well on a small scale to large-scale developments?
What’s the design of an organization that optimizes for learning, agility, and customer value?
Can I redesign my organization to create an environment to succeed in the long run?

Large-Scale Scrum (LeSS) is to organizations what Scrum is to teams: a simple, powerful, large-scale product development framework designed to evolve into something that fits perfectly within any unique context. LeSS builds on top of Scrum principles such as empiricism, cross-functional, self-managing teams, and provides a framework to apply them at scale. It presents simple structural rules and guidelines on how to adopt Scrum in large product development.

The Key Takeaways of this course are:
  • Explain what LeSS is and what LeSS is not
  • Explain the LeSS roles and their purpose
  • Explain how LeSS is a Scrum-based approach to scaling
  • Explain the dynamics of component teams vs. feature teams
  • Summarize the impact of LeSS on organizational design (structures, policies, etc.)
  • Understand how your current organizational design influences the agility of your organization
  • Understand whether and how your organization can benefit from implementing LeSS
  • Explain how LeSS scales over approx. 8 teams
