Kanban System Improvement (KMP2)

<p>The essence of Kanban is - "start where you are", and start with "small pragmatic actionable steps" that you can start implementing next Monday! No new roles, no need to change team structure, and no need for drastic changes in the way you develop your products or deliver services. In short, Kanban favours an evolutionary change approach rather than a big-bang, disruptive change.</p><p>Pioneered by David Anderson, “Kanban Method” is much more than just a board or a kanban system. It is a management method that helps improve service delivery, catalyse improvements and evolve a business to be “fit for purpose”.</p><p>Some of the common situations where Kanban Method delivers great value include:</p><ol><li><p style="margin-left: 40px;">New Scrum teams struggling to reach a sustainable pace of development</p></li><li><p style="margin-left: 40px;">Scrum teams that are overwhelmed by frequent changes in the Sprint scope</p></li><li><p style="margin-left: 40px;">Waterfall teams that wish to transition to Agile, but feel Scrum could be too risky, too disruptive</p></li><li><p style="margin-left: 40px;">Mature Scrum teams that wish to transition to Continuous Delivery</p></li><li><p style="margin-left: 40px;">Teams looking for an “alternative path to agility”</p></li></ol><p><strong>What will you learn?</strong></p><p>“Kanban Management Professional” is a 2-day advanced level course that will help participants build on their existing knowledge of Kanban Method and will help them take their current Kanban implementation to the next level.</p><p>After completion of training you will gain practical insights on how to:</p><p>- Guide a team in their adoption of Kanban</p><p>- Embrace a service-delivery mindset and help the team Identify and reduce the bottlenecks that obstruct their development process</p><p>- Learn how to measure and use meaningful kanban metrics like Flow Efficiency, Lead Time Distribution, Control Chart and Cumulative Flow Diagram (CFD)</p><p>- Learn how to conduct effective Kanban meetings – service delivery review, operations review and risk review</p><p>- Evolve the process and practices in collaboration with team to ensure the service delivery model is “fit for purpose”</p><p><strong>Training Schedule</strong></p><p>This virtual training session will be conducted over 4 half-day sessions:</p><table border="1" cellpadding="1" cellspacing="1" style="width: 500px;"><tbody><tr><td><strong>Session</strong></td><td><strong>Date</strong></td><td><strong>Time (IST)</strong></td><td><strong>Duration</strong></td></tr><tr><td>Session 1</td><td>Sat, Jun 5, 2021</td><td><span style="font-family: &quot;Open Sans&quot;, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; text-align: center;">4:00 PM – 8:00 PM</span></td><td>4 hours</td></tr><tr><td>Session 2</td><td><span style="background-color: rgb(245, 245, 245);">Sun, Jun 6, 2021</span></td><td><span style="font-family: &quot;Open Sans&quot;, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; text-align: center; background-color: rgb(245, 245, 245);">4:00 PM – 8:00 PM</span></td><td><span style="background-color: rgb(245, 245, 245);">4 hours</span></td></tr><tr><td>Session 3</td><td>Sat, Jun 12, 2021</td><td><span style="font-family: &quot;Open Sans&quot;, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; text-align: center;">4:00 PM – 8:00 PM</span></td><td>4 hours</td></tr><tr><td>Session 4</td><td><span style="background-color: rgb(245, 245, 245);">Sun, Jun 13, 2021</span></td><td><span style="font-family: &quot;Open Sans&quot;, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; text-align: center; background-color: rgb(245, 245, 245);">4:00 PM – 8:00 PM</span></td><td><span style="background-color: rgb(245, 245, 245);">4 hours</span></td></tr></tbody></table><p>&nbsp;</p><p><strong>Pre-requisites</strong></p><p>This is an advanced training on Kanban Method and requires participants to have completed&nbsp;<strong>Kanban System Design (KMP1)</strong>.
