Who is it for?
 

The Kanban System Improvement^® class is for those who take responsibility for improving delivery of products and services to customers and for those who want to optimise their businesses.

First and second line managers, project managers, product managers, experienced individual contributors and technical experts, Scrum Masters, business unit leaders, C-level executives, their improvement coaches and consultants.

• If you have experience applying the Kanban method in their organizations and desire to keep momentum beyond the initial improvements realized from the Kanban system introduction;
• If you need to ensure that better products and services lead to higher customer satisfaction and business performance and
• If you want to grow a learning organization, where many such services connect and interact.

Who should NOT attend: people who are purely technical with no interest in improving work processes, people who are uncomfortable with group exercises and simulations (maybe you prefer lecture-only), people who don’t want their teams to improve.

This course is strongly recommended for Team Leads and HR Managers who are responsible for creating a high performance work environment, Managers who want to transform their organizations, and Project Managers who need to know how to work with Agile and Scrum teams.
