kanban

When I teach people about Kanban, they often describe it as radical common sense. But it isn’t easy for most companies.

I think of Kanban as a set of agreements: simple ways to visualise workflow, help people contribute with all their complementary skills, and help bring focus to the work so people can enjoy getting more done rather than just getting more started.

Why Kanban?

Many teams struggle to balance the demand for their services with their true capacity. They suffer bottlenecks where incomplete work stops, gets blocked or delayed. Their priorities are unclear because so much of the work is “In Progress” (but actually just waiting).

Kanban helps teams improve their workflow using actionable metrics like cycle time, item age, and rate of throughput. Those measurements can be used to balance the organization’s demand and capacity to improve both the work environment and business results.
