November TKP - TEAM KANBAN PRACTITIONER

TEAM KANBAN PRACTITIONER (TKP)

You'll be surprised how much hidden work your team has! Team Kanban unhides it, gets it organized, relieves people from overburdening, and helps your team get it finished with quality and pride of workmanship. The 1-day Team Kanban Practitioner (TKP) class teaches you that.

Instructors: One or more of Martin Aziz, Fernando Cuenca and Alexei Zheglov

What will you learn?

• Basic Kanban concepts: visual board, work-in-process (WIP), team metrics
• Kanban's core practices
• How to improve transparency, collaboration, and balance
• Key Team Kanban board design patterns and how to choose the right one for your team
• How to apply WIP limits and deal with work of varying urgency
• How to conduct Kanban-style standup meetings
• How to effectively commit to new work
• What your company may need to do beyond Team-level Kanban

We teach the class with many interactive exercises, games and simulations. We design actual Team Kanban boards in the class. You can take these designs to your office after the class.
