Question 18 What is the primary reason that requires the establishment of some form of LACE in SAFe(r)
Correct answer
Score: 0 of 1
Your answer
Choice because we need to "Train everyone; Launch the Train"
People naturally resist change and for this reason the organisation must reach the point where the compelling imperative is to achieve the change rather than resist it
Because we need to take an agile, incremental, approach to implementation, just as we do with solution development
The people qualified to drive the change usually have full-time responsibilities in their current roles; While they can support change with a portion of their time, a smaller, more dedicated group of people is required to drive the transformation throughout the organization. The primary task of these latter group of people is to drive and implement change.

Innovation Accounting (Eric Ries) uses the following three basic steps: 1) It uses a minimal viable product (MVP) to establish real data on where the company stands at any given juncture. An MVP is the fastest way to establish a customer feedback loop with minimal output of effort. Its primary goal is to test fundamental business hypotheses without having to perfect the product or service in question too prematurely. 2) Using the MVP, start-ups, through many attempts, move from the baseline to the ideal, when the company then reaches a decision point. 3) At this juncture, a company is either making solid progress toward the ideal enough that it makes sense to continue, or persevere. If not, the strategy must be deemed flawed and in need of serious change―or as Ries labels it, a pivot, which starts the process all over again and in a more productive fashion than before.

It is correct that the Epic Owner is responsible for driving the Epic through to the Go/no-go decision point (approval). But their responsibilities do not end there. After the Epic has been accepted for implementation the Epic Owner must collaborate with Agile teams to shepherd the development and realize the benefits. Depending on the situation the Epic Owner may stay engaged on an ongoing basis.https://www.scaledagileframework.com/epic-owner/ Question 50 Deliver early and often is part of which lean-agile principle?
