“The portfolio leadership team are real human beings and they sometimes got into the position that they're in from being really good at a certain style of leadership that worked really well for execution and they're now asked to think from a more strategic point of view and … nobody helps them get to that point.” In this conversation, Adam talks to Rebecca Davis, SAFe methodologist on the Framework team about the importance of portfolio leadership and why it’s back on people’s radars. The two dive into topics including the difference between portfolio leaders and portfolio managers, the challenges portfolio leaders face, and the new, simplified Framework article that provides guidance on who should be on a portfolio leadership team and the critical behaviors and responsibilities that can make that team successful.
