6. Kanban Self Assessment
• New: I am curious, have scattered knowledge
• Informed: Attended a lean Kanban conference or training
• Practicing: I am running Kanban with my team
• Practitioner: I am helping my customers running their Kanban systems
11. What is Kanban?
• We have two Kanban, Kanban with capital K and kanban
with small k.
• Kanban (Capital K): Is the system
• Kanban (small k): Is the signal
12. kanban (small k)
In Japanese, kanban (看板) means “signboard”
or “signal card.”
30. Kanban Practices: Visualize
• Visualize (the work, the workflow and the business
risks)
• As a rule, seek to make that which is invisible, visible.
• Once invisible work, workflows, and business risks
can be seen, it is possible to manage them better and
to do so collaboratively and with consensus.
35. Kanban Practices: Manage Flow
• The flow of work items through each state in the
workflow should be monitored and reported – often
referred to as Measuring Flow.
• By flow we mean movement. We are interested in the
speed of movement and the smoothness of that
movement.
In a factory environment like Toyota, workers use these signboards to produce more
This ensures that we only makes more products when the next station is ready for new goods to process
Kanban method
David Anderson
It is the same motivation we use Agile
Team: Sustainability which increase business predictability
Middle Level: Do important thing first
Organization: Have a strategy and a clear roadmap with valuable outcome
Service Delivery: https://resources.kanban.university/kanbans-service-delivery-principles/
Change Management Principles: https://resources.kanban.university/kanbans-change-management-principles/
Service Delivery: is the process we deliver the request needed by the customer
Talk about votes and consensus and what is the different?
What is the different when we all agree and when we take the majority
Public and Visible – preferably written in a large font and posted in a prominent spaceCollaborative – created by all, not imposed from aboveShorter – fewer agreements that are lived up to trump a long list that gets forgottenUpdated Frequently – Taiichi Ohno once said: "If the Kanban do not change for one month you are salary thieves."Confront broken agreement – when the agreements are violated, team members call out the violation

Both are Pull systems
Kanban: Evolutionary
Scrum: Revolutionary
Kanban: is task boxed
Scrum: is time boxed
Estimates: Story Point, velocity, etc..
No estimates: based on the CFD we have probability for each service to finish in certain time based on the facts.
