Description
Summary:This research paper examines the implementation of the SAFe® Methodology in financial institutions to identify and resolve shortcomings in Agile practices. The primary emphasis is on the discrepancies in the responsibilities of Product Owners and how they affect the goals of the organization. The study proposes a new diagnostic approach that focuses on three dimensions: operational, strategic, and cultural. The goal is to improve overall agility and effectiveness. The methodology incorporates a comprehensive examination of Agile methodologies through a literature review, identifying deficiencies in the detection and resolution of anti-patterns. The proposed solution entails a comprehensive framework that incorporates Product Owners, Scrum Masters, and Value Stream Mapping to address these deficiencies. Comprehensive diagnostic analyses entail the use of quantitative self-assessments and qualitative interviews, with a focus on aligning strategic objectives with Agile implementation. The study's findings emphasize the need to reevaluate production owner strategies, increase Scrum Master participation, and optimize Value Stream Mapping to tackle operational inefficiencies. The recommendations prioritize the improvement of Agile processes, fostering team collaboration, and increasing productivity within financial institutions. The paper emphasizes the significance of continuously improving Agile practices to meet the everchanging requirements of the financial sector, thus enhancing adaptability and organizational effectiveness.
