00:00:06,885 --> 00:00:10,102
- Welcome to lesson three,
understanding SAFe principles.

2
00:00:10,102 --> 00:00:12,134
With a basic understanding
of SAFe in place

3
00:00:12,134 --> 00:00:14,884
and a lean agile mindset
underway you're ready to learn

4
00:00:14,884 --> 00:00:16,140
how the framework builds

5
00:00:16,140 --> 00:00:19,999
on nine fundamental principles
of lean agile development.

6
00:00:19,999 --> 00:00:21,119
These are the essential tenets,

7
00:00:21,119 --> 00:00:22,638
the basic economic truths

8
00:00:22,638 --> 00:00:25,257
that underlie the practices
we'll explore later.

9
00:00:25,257 --> 00:00:28,137
As Deming has said, "It is a
disease of Western management

10
00:00:28,137 --> 00:00:30,650
"that they think their
problems are all different."

11
00:00:30,650 --> 00:00:32,730
They are different to be
sure but the principles

12
00:00:32,730 --> 00:00:34,970
that improve the quality
of product and service

13
00:00:34,970 --> 00:00:36,714
are universal in nature.

14
00:00:36,714 --> 00:00:37,803
Keeping these principles in mind

15
00:00:37,803 --> 00:00:40,492
enables you to make
necessary modifications

16
00:00:40,492 --> 00:00:42,791
to overcome the inevitable
challenges you'll face

17
00:00:42,791 --> 00:00:44,566
during implementation.

18
00:00:44,566 --> 00:00:46,934
So whether you are building
a small desktop application,

19
00:00:46,934 --> 00:00:49,766
a sass solution, a new ERP system,

20
00:00:49,766 --> 00:00:51,578
a medical device, or a satellite,

21
00:00:51,578 --> 00:00:54,694
you'll want to take an economic view,

22
00:00:54,694 --> 00:00:56,716
apply systems thinking,

23
00:00:56,716 --> 00:00:59,398
assume variability and preserve options,

24
00:00:59,398 --> 00:01:02,506
build incrementally with fast
integrated learning cycles,

25
00:01:02,506 --> 00:01:06,040
base milestones on objective
evaluation of working systems,

26
00:01:06,040 --> 00:01:08,279
visualize and limit work in process,

27
00:01:08,279 --> 00:01:11,526
reduce batch sizes, and
manage queue lengths.

28
00:01:11,526 --> 00:01:14,646
Apply cadence and synchronize
with cross-domain planning.

29
00:01:14,646 --> 00:01:17,387
Unlock the intrinsic
motivation of knowledge workers

30
00:01:17,387 --> 00:01:20,137
and decentralize decision-making.
