Flow Optimization and Kanban Cadences-Advanced Kanban Management Method (KMP II) Dallas
“Flow Optimization and Kanban Cadences – Advanced Kanban Management Method (KMP II)”, a two-day training, systematically builds upon the foundations established in “Kanban System Design – A System Thinking Approach to Evolutionary Change (KMP I)” or your existing Kanban knowledge. By focusing on the complex demands of a multi-teamed organization, we explore how to keep momentum beyond initial improvements realized from a successful Kanban implementation. We address the need to ensure that better products and services lead to higher customer satisfaction and business performance through the sound management and understanding of the seven cadences offered by Kanban. This course provides the essential tools to those wanting to grow a learning organization and leverage the many services which connect and interact. After these two days, you will uncover the potential still hidden in your system, even if you are currently using Kanban successfully. You will learn about the techniques which can be used to achieve the full potential of your Kanban system.   In this advanced Kanban training, we work on scaling, prioritizing and forecasting—those themes which need a system that has been in place for a while and has somewhat matured.   Forecasting “When will the work be finished?” and “How much work can we deliver in each time-frame?” are two questions which you will be able to answer in the future with accurate predictability instead of just estimating an answer.    Prioritizing Are you at the point where the WIP limit isn’t being maintained because suddenly everything has top priority? Classical prioritization often causes more problems than it solves. We examine an economically reasonable and resilient method for prioritization: Cost of Delay.   Scaling With the third theme, scaling, we focus on answering the following question: How do you best coordinate a Kanban system over different hierarchical and functional levels of a company, so that they are integrated and networked into a whole system?   What You Will Learn   ØDeeper Kanban practices to sustain evolutionary improvements ØFitness for purpose metrics ØHow to fight emotional objections to WIP limit introduction ØPractice Kanban as a robust blueprint for real-world change management scenarios ØCompile Kanban strategies to sustain and scale evolutionary improvements in your organization ØEnabled by 7 Kanban cadences, apply a tactical approach to organizational feedback loops in common areas, including: ØOperations Review ØService Delivery Review ØRisk Review   ØAccurately predict when your work will be finished.
