About this Event: We all know that Agile is sweeping the project management world. Or is it Lean? Lean Agile? Scrum? Kanban? Scrimagilean, maybe? Jon Terry of LeanKit will discuss how these ideas relate to each other. How Lean principles provide the organizational framework to allow Agile to succeed beyond the team level. What the Kanban method really is. Hint: It's not just an alternative to Scrum for maintenance teams. And how you can use the data that Kanban provides for dramatically better forecasting and continuous improvement:
- The Toyota Production System and its Lean/Agile children
- Lean Principles Overview
- Visual Management and Pull Scheduling
- Kanban, Scrum, and Scrumban
- Workflow metrics based on actual results not estimates
