Presentation: "Kanban System Design"

Time: Thursday 10:35 - 11:35

Location: Elizabeth Windsor, Fifth Floor

Abstract:
A Kanban System is an approach to creating a method in order to improve a business's capability to meet its purpose. This talk will introduce a model for creating a Kanban System based on the central theme of systems thinking, a foundation of pull, value and capability, and aspects of workflow, visualisation, work in process, cadence, and learning. The model does not prescribe practices to be followed, but suggests key areas to consider when changing and improve an organisation’s delivery capability.
