Online Meetup: Kanban and Essence – Great Partners

The Kanban Method is successfully being applied in a broad range of services and sectors and the number of practitioners and experts is growing. However, like many popular approaches, Kanban is also frequently misunderstood and misapplied. This is one reason why Ivar Jacobson International and Kanban University wanted to bring Essence to the Team level of Kanban. Essentializing a practice like Kanban offers new ways for people to understand it and makes it easier to apply the evolutionary change aspect of Kanban to adopting the Kanban Method itself.

Kanban Coaching Exchange – Agile @ Altitude with Tony Richards

This is a story of a large physical engineering company that transitioned from traditional project delivery practices to Agile whilst maintaining safety and increasing the reliability of the equipment in their care. The difference was that their equipment was located in the ocean hundreds of miles from land.

​In this story, you will discover how the team and organisation visualised their work on and off shore to reveal what stopped the execution of valuable/expensive engineering work. What they did to create a direct connection between the organisation’s strategic objectives and everything delivered in real-time. When the parent organisation decided to introduce multi-disciplinary teams, how these teams pivoted with ease.

What is Kanban? An Explanation for Beginners

A Kanban system is more than sticky notes on the wall. The easiest way to understand Kanban is to adopt its philosophy and apply it to your daily work. If you read, understand, and identify with its basic principles, the practical transition will seem logical and even inevitable.
