Certified Kanban Workshop

Improving service delivery with Kanban method

This class includes the necessary amount of information to create sufficient skills to start using Kanban method in your organization. This course is the official training class of LeanKanban University, founded by David Anderson – author of the Kanban method. All participants will receive the official internationally recognized certificate of attendance from LeanKanban University.

Why Attend

Kanban is an alternative path to agility. Scrum, so far, is the most widespread Agile methodology. However, Scrum is not always an optimal solution to the challenge. Scrum transformation implies changing context and structures of the organization. Not always it is possible to create small independent cross-functional teams. Not always its creation leads to the “promised” results. Unlike Scrum, Kanban method allows you to:Screen Shot 2014-11-21 at 16.30.38

  • describe and optimize large complex systems with lots of dependencies,
  • not tied to cross-functional teams,
  • start where you are now and evolutionarily evolve without the need to carry out major structural changes for the introduction.

There is a popular prejudice that Kanban works well only in rare cases where Scrum is failing, for example, the operational teams. This is not so. The applicability of Kanban method is much wider. Moreover, the evolutionary approach reduces the resistance of the new changes, which greatly increases the chances of success of the evolutionary transformation with Kanban.

Participants will also learn how to:

  • Identify internal and external sources of dissatisfaction with the process
  • Analyze demand and capacity of the system
  • Simulate workflow
  • Create kanban system
  • Choose a frequency of the various events / meetings
  • Identify service classes
  • Create a deployment plan for Kanban system
