What’s the CLB course all about?

Ever wondered how to make Scrum work for large teams without causing a mini organizational apocalypse? Enter the Certified LeSS Basics course. It’s your gateway to understanding the LeSS Framework, a beacon among Agile scaling frameworks. Large-Scale Scrum (LeSS) isn’t just about scaling; it’s about smart descaling for Agile product development tailored for bustling teams and growth-focused organizations.

LeSS isn’t just Scrum on steroids; it’s a thoughtful approach that builds on foundational Scrum principles. It offers a clear framework for applying Scrum principles at scale, ensuring you don’t lose the Agile essence amidst the vastness of enterprise operations.

What’s in it for you?

Apart from the bragging rights of knowing LeSS? You’ll grasp what LeSS is (and isn’t), understand its purpose, and gauge its applicability in your dynamic work environment. By the end, you’ll not only be a LeSS wizard but also have a treasure trove of insights to share with your teams. And, let’s be honest, who doesn’t love a good “Did you know in LeSS…” conversation starter?

Topics that’ll make you the life of the Agile party:

• Why LeSS might just be the “more” you need
• How LeSS stands tall as a Scrum-based approach to scaling
• The organizational design impacts of LeSS (Hint: It’s transformative!)
• Component teams vs. feature teams: The eternal debate
• Roles in LeSS: Who’s who in the zoo
• The magic of one real PO (and why team POs are a myth)
• Navigating the LeSS Complete diagram: principles, rules, guides, and experiments
• Scaling LeSS beyond eight teams: Because size does matter in Agile
• A mirror to your current organization’s state
• LeSS vs SAFe: The subtle differences
• The ripple effects of LeSS adoption on your organization and your coffee breaks
