What Are The 7 Habits Of Highly Effective RTEs? New White Paper!

The role of Release Train Engineer (RTE, the Chief Scrum Master) has only come into existence over the past decade or so. This group of courageous, pioneering professionals is still rare. “Now, however, there’s enough critical mass to begin to see and understand the key traits that characterize the effective RTE,” says Andres Jansen, Agile Transformation Coach and Senior Trainer at Gladwell Academy.

Cracking the money mystery: RTE salary

“In this White Paper, we don’t just talk about these seven habits – which by the way involve every part of the RTE, from their personality and mindset to physical activity – we also look at salaries for this role,” he says. This is pioneering and even sensitive territory, as most RTEs have come to their role organically – perhaps migrating from another and more ‘official’ position like Scrum Master or Program Manager and maintaining the salary level of that original position. For those with official RTE training and certification, like the 3-day SAFe Release Train Engineer with RTE Certification training from Gladwell Academy, the career opportunities appear to be virtually future-proof.

The 7 habits of Highly Effective RTEs as described in the White Paper

Brilliant Simplicity: Just one of the 7 Habits of Highly Effective RTEs

The ability to make complex issues simple and easy to understand is indeed brilliant – and not surprisingly, one of the 7 Habits. Curious about what the other 6 habits might be? Do take a moment to read the white paper.
