Are your strategic initiatives truly delivering value? In today's dynamic market, traditional annual budgeting and rigid project planning can create bottlenecks, slow down innovation, and misalign teams from business goals. This 2-hour interactive workshop, "Optimizing Value Streams: An Introduction to Lean Portfolio Management," offers a transformative approach to aligning strategy with execution.
Based on the principles of Lean Portfolio Management (LPM), we'll move beyond a project-centric mindset to focus on a continuous flow of value. Through a hands-on "Value Stream Analysis" exercise, you'll learn to identify and eliminate waste, while a guided discussion will introduce you to key LPM disciplines like outcome-based planning and value-based prioritization. We'll explore the power of embracing a "fail fast" culture and investing in small, incremental initiatives to reduce risk and accelerate learning. This workshop is designed for Agile Coaches, leaders, and anyone involved in strategic planning who wants to shift their organization towards a more agile, responsive, and value-driven approach. Walk away with practical insights and actionable steps to begin optimizing your own value streams.
