Hello folks!

Our community is continually growing as evidenced by over 2,000,000 annual visitors who come to the SAFe Framework website. Increasingly these visitors come from our ever-growing group of countries where English is not the first language. Unquestionably, our Global Partner Network addresses the local concerns very effectively. But since we at Scaled Agile strive to have the view of a common ‘language of SAFe,’ we understand clear interpretations can be challenging for companies geographically distributed or located where English is not the primary language.

So, we are pleased to announce that we have professionally translated the SAFe 4.5 Glossary and you can download it nine languages: Arabic, Chinese, English, Finnish, Italian, Japanese, Portuguese (BR), Russian and Spanish. Each version is an elegantly formatted pdf and provides definitions of the 90+ foundational terms used in SAFe, as well as 50 of the most common acronyms and abbreviations. For those languages we have not yet translated, we have kept the Google translation button on the glossary page.

I also wanted to let you know we’re busy planning for the 2018 Global SAFe Summit in Washington, DC, Oct. 1 – 5. If you haven’t registered for it yet, please join us in Washington, DC by registering here.

Stay SAFe!
