Fly4You - a SAFe® Business simulation

Fly4You takes place in 1 day and is perfect as part of a team building day.

Fly4You is a simulation game where participants learn selected SAFe methods and principles. The focus is delivering high business and customer value, rapid implementation of new products/services, ensuring fewer errors and happier employees. The simulation is based on a case about a newly established airline "Fly4You", which has established a website with booking functionality targeted at young travelers.

The participants are part of the newly established airline – and in the simulation are faced with concrete tasks about building and continuously improving the solution to ensure an improved customer experience, increase sales and correct mistakes from earlier.

The simulation game

In this simulation, participants have different agile roles such as Business Owner, Product Manager, Product Owner, Technical Architect, Scrum Master, Developer etc. and are guided through various tasks around the identification of Epics, Features, Stories, Tasks, and are continuously faced with concrete challenges that the team must address and solve in order to move forward. We work with concrete tools - taken from agile development as part of the SAFe toolbox.

The simulation game is supported by a digital online tool - which continuously provides the opportunity to assess progress and value creation.

Profit:

After completing the workshop, the participants will be able to give an offer for the following:

  • How to identify valuable development initiatives and ensure consistency between Epics, Feature, Stories, Tasks?
  • How do you organize around selected development initiatives?
  • How do you define OKRs (Objective & Key Results)?
  • How do you work operationally with Feature and Stories - including preparation of acceptance criteria (AK), Definition of Done (DoD) and use of the Kanban Board?
  • How do you ensure progress in the work - which supports full alignment and transparency?
  • How do you involve all stakeholders when you 'implement' this way of working?

The simulation is aimed at Product Managers, Product Owners, Scrum Masters, Developers, RTEs, etc.

In other words, everyone who works with agile methods and in agile teams in an agile set-up.
