While working with BMW I taught many CLPs, worked with teams, SMs, and the senior management team to help absorb and adapt LeSS within the organisation, and worked especially closely with product management, the PO and APOs to understand and apply LeSS. I facilitated the first product roadmap workshop for autonomous driving and put in place a new process for this longer term planning need, supported improved estimation, improved communities of practice and the alignment of developer community priorities with product management priorities, and also worked broadly with many entities internally and externally to align to the development of autonomous driving using LeSS (electrical engineering, design function, external suppliers, etc.).  Great experience and am glad to have been a part of it!
