At the core of ELSE are the Principles. They are giving the "true north", the direction we aim for. Here are the links to them, categorised based on the area they belong to. |

But principles often work together, and the perspectives are intended to capture these relationships and provide a narrative to give coherence to the system of Principles. |
Practices
During the modelling of ELSE, we developed also several ideas and workshop formats that are good practices when implementing agile at scale, yet, not driving principles. Therefore we created a growing collection of Practices that will grown over time.
Worked Examples
Real-life examples will be illustrated here.
Tools
During our work we have devised some techniques and workshop formats that will be documented soonish...
