The webinar will introduce the cards and explain how we created them but more importantly, we will show you ways that you can use them to help with teaching or coaching engagements. You will be able to download the cards to use yourself and sign up for early, beta access to a new tool that provides a digital platform to explore and experiment with a team’s way of working.

Kanban Coaching Exchange:
Beyond Copy Paste Agile – Cliff Hazell

Thursday, April 20, 2023

​7:30 PM – 8:30 PM CEST
6:30 PM – 7:30 PM BST
1:30 PM – 2:30 PM EDT
10:30 AM – 11:30 AM PDT

Today it’s common for company leaders to express a desire to be more agile, and many embark on expensive change journeys to make their teams more agile. After years on this journey fraught with “resistance” and lots of change, and yet they are seldom able to show results that are meaningful to customers or the business. Part of the problem is the core assumption that the problems, and therefore solutions, exist at the team level.

Cliff Hazell’s experience is that to delight customers, collaboration is required between teams and departments. This focusing on the parts (individuals and teams) rarely improves the whole, in ways customers will appreciate or pay for.

In this session, Hazell will explore this through three lenses: Systems, Science, and Sapiens.

Team Kanban Simulation During Kanban System Design Class in Pristina, Kosovo

Accredited Kanban Trainer Ivaylo Gueorguiev facilitated an online team Kanban simulation with three groups in parallel during the on-site Kanban System Design class in Pristina, Kosovo. The experience they gained with Kanbanize simulation in the online courses is even more productive in on-site delivery. The participants benefit from a fully functional tool and real-time analytics on their laptops in the classroom.
