Webinar: How to Turn Your Daily Meetings into Outcome-Driven Events

How to Turn Your Daily Meetings into Outcome-Driven Events

Wednesday, July 27, 2022

11:00 AM PDT • 1:00 PM CDT • 2:00 PM EDT • 7:00 PM BST • 8:00 PM CEST

Register for the Nave Webinar

Back in the day, it was a tradition to spend the daily morning call asking all the people in the team what they did yesterday, and what they’re doing today.

And now, a new trend is evolving, which pretty much reverts us right back to our old bad behavior. Your daily meeting is not and should not be a status update meeting. If the purpose of your calls is to get a status report, you run the risk of drastically impacting your improvement initiative!

In this Kanban University Partner Webinar, we’ll explore how to turn your calls into outcome-driven actionable events that enable you to make progress and see the results of your efforts!

Finding Your Servi​ce Delivery Manager

Finding Your Servi​ce Delivery Manager

Register for KGS22 before the July 15 price change.

The role of the Service Delivery Manager (SDM) is critical to enable higher levels of delivery maturity, and its absence is acknowledged as one of the most common barriers to transitioning to Kanban Maturity Model Level 2. When confronted with identifying this role, most organizations find the conversation really challenging.

In his talk at the Kanban Global Summit, Fernando Cuenca (Principal Consultant at SquirrelNorth) will describe the meaning of the SDM role as defined in Kanban and share stories of real world companies. You’ll return to work able to answer the scary question of “who’s responsible for delivery here?”

Prices go up on Friday, July 15, 2022!

The Kanban Community Returns to Austria

The Kanban Community Returns to Austria!

Kanban Leadership Retreat Recap

Last week, 41 Kanban enthusiasts from around the world were thrilled to gather in person again for the 2022 Kanban Leadership Retreat in Mayrhofen, Austria.

Attendees discussed Upstream STATIK, making Scrum better with Kanban, Kanban beyond IT, Debunking Resistance to Change, and many, many more subjects. We exchanged knowledge, created communities, and shared experiences, food, and drinks. Some folks went climbing, others went biking, and relaxing with a massage was even an option. Best of all, we connected and reconnected.

In other words, KLR in Austria was amazing! See for yourself in our photos below.

We can’t wait to do it again this August at the upcoming U.S. Kanban Leadership Retreat in San Diego, California. Don’t miss out on your opportunity to experience KLR this year.

The weather was beautiful, the mountains were gorgeous, and the welcome at the Europahaus was hospitable as always.

The fridge was still magical, the music embraced the Austrian ambiance perfectly, and the crowd was amazing, of course!
