Build Kanban
Training Kanban System Design - KSD
Here you will learn more about Kanban and its core concepts and build your first Kanban board. Become capable of acting on Kanban!
This is a solid foundation training through which you can immediately introduce Kanban systems in your organisation or improve existing ones. You will recognise the importance and power of making work and workflow visible and you will learn the importance of work-in-progress (WIP) limits and pull mechanisms and how they help to improve the work process.
The target audience is managers and team members who want to start a Kanban initiative or get more out of their current working/kanban system. This is also the entry-level training for Scrum Masters or other agile roles.
