Kanban System Design (KMP1)
Swap those risky large scale change programmes for a cultural shift towards continuous improvement, transformation and transparency.
Kanban System Design teaches Lean and Agile practices to help you and your team employ incremental, iterative approaches in improving business process, policy and products,
Improving speed to delivery by focusing on the flow of value
Learn how to create a culture of continuous improvement and optimise your team's performance through the principles of flow. By visualising work, limiting work in progress, and stopping starting, you can streamline their workflows, reduce sources of delay, and create a laser focus on achieving their goals.
This workshop provides expert guidance on how to apply flow principles to your specific context, enabling you to boost productivity, reduce lead time, and improve efficiency. Additionally, by measuring for learning and using OpenSpace to pop the bubbles, you will gain valuable tools for ongoing improvement and collaboration.
Who is this course for?
Organisations are a network of interconnected and interdependent services.
