SAFe Leadership Forum

For the fourth time,  the SAFe^® Leadership Forum – the Conference for Scaled Agility in Switzerland – opens its doors to leaders and decision-makers.

We at KEGON Schweiz – Better Results have set ourselves the goal of promoting agile thinking and best practices in business through a high-quality and inspiring event.
Community-driven, practice-orientated and personal. Look forward to inspiring presentations, interactive workshops and intensive dialogue in a unique atmosphere. 

The topics of the forum are:

Better Investments

The sessions on “Better Investments” offer a professional exchange on how organizations can align investment decisions more strongly with value creation and strategic effectiveness. The focus is on experiences and perspectives from the community on participatory budgeting, lean budgeting, and the connection between strategic alignment and flow metrics. Together, we discuss how to effectively balance portfolios and how to shift the focus from project financing toward sustainable outcomes.

Better Products

The sessions on “Better Products” offer a professional exchange on how organizations can embed product thinking more deeply and align product development consistently with user value and impact. The focus is on perspectives from the community regarding customer centricity, outcome-oriented decision-making, iterative validation, and establishing design thinking as a mindset in product development. Together, we explore how product responsibility can be established across hierarchical and organizational boundaries, how feature-driven approaches can be transformed back into holistic products, and how existing framework approaches can be effectively translated into practice.

Measuring the Business Benefits

The sessions on “Measuring the Business Benefits” focus on how organizations can make the actual benefits of agile transformations visible and manageable. The focus is on community perspectives on measuring business outcomes such as time-to-market, customer satisfaction, employee engagement, innovation capability, and strategic impact. Together, we discuss how value becomes tangible through suitable metrics and dialogue formats, how organizations can avoid KPI fetishism, and how leaders can measure impact without falling back into traditional control mechanisms.
