G’day, we’re Atlassian. We make tools like Jira Align that are used by thousands of teams worldwide. And we’re serious about creating amazing products, practices, and open work for all teams.

In order to make the right kinds of investment decisions, portfolio leaders need the right kind of data inputs. Today, many organizations plan for product- and team-level investments by looking backwards at work and “counting beans.” This puts the budgetary focus on work already completed but not on what needs to be delivered next. This type of analysis causes teams to overspend on the wrong work and fail to invest in the initiatives that will meaningfully propel the business forward.

Now, with Jira Align, there is a better way—one that offers the flexibility needed for Lean Portfolio Management (LPM) and allows you to make smart resource investments without counting every bean.

In this webinar, you’ll learn from two of our enterprise agility experts about how Jira Align supports LPM. In addition to seeing our newest investment insights capabilities, we will discuss:

How to use data you already have to plan investments more strategically
What are guardrails and how to apply them to product and team level investments
Ways the executive and finance suite can participate in lean “pivot or persevere” conversations

In 2024, Hybrid is the new normal for Agile ways of working. Now, enterprises use home-grown frameworks or something inspired by an industry-standard framework, and some still have traditional PMO teams reminiscent of the waterfall days. Org-wide Agile mandates don’t always make business impact, so teams are left to operate and deliver in a discordant manner because of the underlying system complexity. 

Does your Q1 already look like this? If so, join this webinar to learn about pragmatic scaling techniques to use (and pitfalls to avoid!) in order to succeed with org-wide transformations for teams with Hybrid ways of working.

You’ll learn:

Lessons from real-world engagements about common scaling patterns and pitfalls to avoid
Tips that lead to a much higher percentage of scaling success at enterprises with varied ways of working
How Jira Align increases delivery success, enables value tracking, and improves prioritization

Transformations Across Hybrid Environments

Businesses across the board find that transitioning away from rigid, hierarchical, top-down managerial structures to fluid organizational designs offer a more collaborative, dynamic way of working in this digital age.

However, desiring this kind of “digital transition” isn’t enough. Rolling out any new organizational design or value stream and effecting it in a meaningful way takes time. And throwing broad, all-encompassing terms like “digital transformation” into the conversation often muddles the process wherein action items become unclear. 

So, let our panel of experts help you break through the noise. Helen Beal, Chair of the Value Stream Management Consortium, joins three members of the Atlassian team to walk you through the secrets of value stream thinking, how to set realistic Objectives and Key Results (OKRs), and four essential metrics with which to measure your company’s value stream management.

Secrets of Value Stream thinking

Every enterprise makes large investments in its data strategy. But many companies are missing something key to managing their portfolios: data from the system of record for work.

Without the data that enables analysis of progress against objectives, portfolio managers are flying blind.

Jira Align offers dozens of pre-formatted reports, as well as custom-built reporting. And with the built-in BI solution, you can incorporate data with other business reports to get the deeper insights your organization needs to drive innovation and deliver on your strategy.

In this webinar we will:

Take a deep dive into built-in and custom portfolio-level reporting
Show how Enterprise Insights can be used with other systems, such as SFDC, Snowflake, and Hadoop
Walk through reports integrated with Jira data and 3rd party apps
Show how Enterprise Insights can quantify the ROI of your Jira Align purchase
