Many of us have read and heard plenty about Kanban. Even so, we may not have had the chance to fully experience the effects of doing the three things Kanban is designed to help us do: visualize work, limit work in progress, and draw attention to flow.
Here’s the good news: if you live in the Southern California area you don’t need to switch jobs (or launch a massive kanban implementation) to get first-hand experience. All you need to do is play Russell Healy’s Kanban game, which is what we’ll be doing at the June 28 APLN OC meeting. Over the course of a couple of hours, we will simulate a development cycle complete with crises, organizational impediments, and other real-world factors. As players, you make decisions and watch the effects unfold before your eyes.
All game materials as well as facilitation will be provided – just come ready to learn and have fun!
Free event , food will be served.
