Free Webinar: Don’t Be Fast and Furious. Just Be Predictable!

Thursday, August 5 at 2 p.m. CEST

Do you feel like you waste time on work that is then cancelled? Do you tend to overpromise delivery dates? The Kanban 2-phase commitment concept helps to address both issues with work planning and identifying work that will not be completed from the start.

In this webinar, Anna Radzikowska will share her story of a team that successfully implemented a 2-phase commitment method and how it improved communication with stakeholders. It will also take a look at lead time and its importance.
