🎯 About the Webinar
Artificial Intelligence is reshaping how we plan, execute, and lead in the Scaled Agile Framework (SAFe®).
In this session, three leading voices explore how AI transforms the principles, roles, and practices that drive enterprise agility — and what timeless agile values still endure.
“AI can optimize any process — but if you don’t know what good looks like, it will just get you lost faster.”
— Dr. Stephen Mayner
