The Scaled Agile Framework (SAFe™) is one of the most popular approaches to applying agile at scale out there. SAFe's perspective is that "Nothing beats an Agile Team" and it doesn't try to reinvent the wheel or even innovate too much when it comes to the Team level. SAFe's Scrum Master is more of an Agile Team Lead.

Then, we will dive into the topic of Agile PMO, its relevance, and a number of roles that can be played by such a PMO. With this background, let’s proceed towards the concept of Agile PMO. The first question that comes to mind in having a PMO coupled with an Agile approach is this: Is a PMO really needed at all in an Agile setting?

No sustainable agility is achieved. One aspect of ‘complexity’ are the parameters, variables and events that influence an activity and its course. And then, of course, the behavior of the parameter is still not necessarily predictable. Organizations discover that fighting complexity with complexity is not helping.

If you could magically create a new world where large organizations had overcome the barriers to Business Agility and Agile came naturally, what would have to be true about that world, the organizations, and the people working there?

In contexts of growing business and technical uncertainty, those with the fastest feedback loop win. When we say “Working Software” in the Agile Manifesto, we don’t mean just “It is working and we tested it meets our acceptance criteria and our definition of Done”.

Experienced agile coaches and practitioners develop a sixth-sense. They can quickly assess the health of an agile project or team just as doctors do with their patients. In my agile training and consulting practice, I have witnessed similar symptoms when an organization is struggling with its agile adoption.

Technical teams who are building or supporting application software usually work from a prioritized list of improvements, new features, and ideas to try out. All that unplanned activity used to create stress for technical workers. Of course, that’s not how software is created, and it never was. There will be stress.

A dropping rate on a complex project might prompt a scope review, while a rising rate on simpler tasks could indicate a profitable area of focus. An uptick in confirmed projects should trigger a review of available resources.
