Kanban is based on creating visibility in one’s workflow and then managing the workflow by not allowing work to exceed certain capacity levels. Doing this allows for smooth workflow and avoids the creation of delays, which create additional work. This is a challenging and fun hands-on workshop that covers both the theory and practice of Kanban.
The core Kanban practices can be incorporated into an existing process fairly easily while achieving significant results. These practices include:
This course will prove useful to those doing Scrum or other Agile methodologies who want to make improvements to their process, and also to those not using an Agile process who would like to transition to one in a smooth way.

The course alternates between interactive presentation and simulation. It provides just enough theory to understand how to complete the next section in the simulation. The simulation is designed to be challenging, you won't always get it right or figure it out in the moment. That's where the interactive presentation comes in; you'll be reflecting on what worked, what didn't and applying those lessons to the next simulation session.
During the workshop you will:
People wanting to learn about Agile, Scrum, Lean and Kanban;
Teams wanting to explore what Kanban is prior to implementing it.
Scrum teams wanting to improve their Scrum methods by learning the principles that drive Kanban and can be incorporated into Scrum
There are no prerequisites for this course.
