Frequently Asked Questions:
What is the difference between SAFe and CAL-E/O?
On the surface, the goals of SAFe and CAL-E/O are similar: An Agile Organization.
SAFe has an excellent focus on the tactical elements of Agile such as the process, roles, multi-team releases. It is a wonderful way to adopt Agile practices in a large organization. One might say the focus is on Doing Agile. The focus here is on what we can do to improve things with as little organizational change as possible.
Based on the book Leading Beyond Change, the focus of our CAL is about how to make the shift from a Traditional to an Evolutionary approach. How we lead. How we approach change. How we think about people and results. It’s how to integrate Agile Doing and Being into the larger picture of organizational evolution. Get ready for the SELF Framework for how to scale excellence with people.
What is the requirement for CAL-E/O certification?
Attending the full class is sufficient. There is no exam.
Do all CAL-E/O training cover the same content?
Yes and No. All CAL-E/O training covers the same set of high-level learning objectives. But, each training is as unique as the instructor. Each CAL-E/O reflects the unique leadership and organizational development journey of the instructor.
What are the pre-requisites before CAL-E/O?
You are expected to have basic knowledge of Agile. This may have come to you through industry experience, reading, meetups, or formal training. This course is designed for anyone seeking to foster a more “agile” high-performance organization. It is accessible and essential for leaders in innovation, lean, human resources, etc. – not just Agile.
