Creating Resilient, Robust, & Antifragile OrganizationsDavid Anderson
What makes organizations fragile? What makes them resilient and able to bounce back from failure? How can they be robust to avoid major failures? However, what really differentiates business that are "built to last" is that they can mutate & evolve in response to change technology, market, economic and political conditions. What actions can leaders take to create resilient, robust & antifragile businesses and how can the Kanban Method help with that?

Enterprise Services Planning - Scaling the Benefits of KanbanDavid Anderson
Key note from Lean Kanban Southern Europe in Madrid, April 2015. Defines Enterprise Services Planning as a service-oriented approach to improving professional services and evolving to a level of business performance that is "fit for purpose". Your business is an ecosystem of interdependent services which can be improved through the use of Kanban: Learn to see services; Kanban each service; Implement feedback loops to enable evolutionary change and continually improving service delivery.
Creating Robust, Resilient & Antifragile Organizations (using Kanban)David Anderson
Explains in plain language Nassim Nicholas Taleb's taxonomy of fragile, resilient, robust & antifragile organizations and explains how the Kanban Method can be used to create resiliency, robustness and evolutionary capability. Ultimately antifragility requires an ability to change identity
Tribal behavior in the workplace is core to the human condition. This talk explains how an understanding of sociology and social psychology has been used to develop the community for the Kanban Method, embedded into the Kanban Method to leverage human behavior in the workplace and how you can design kanban systems to encourage positive social behavior in the workplace
"Fitness for Purpose" - Resilience & Agility in Modern BusinessDavid Anderson
High technology businesses tend to focus on and reward innovation but to be “fit for purpose” in the eyes of customers, product and service innovation must be coupled with acceptable service delivery. Business resilience relies on a constant ability to sense shifts in customer demands and expectations, and to respond with new products, service and levels of service delivery. Evolutionary biology provides us with a model for adapting to changing conditions and evaluating fitness. This talk will look at how the Kanban Method enables evolutionary adaptability and how to define fitness criteria metrics to drive effective business performance.

Do teams really need a backlog? Large backlogs are often wasteful -- they are difficult to groom and manage, difficult to prioritise and difficult to keep track of everything going on. By limiting WIP at the portfolio level, deferring commitment to the last responsible moment, and tracking lead times at an MMF level, we may be able to hack backlogs that are so small, that we can get rid of them altogether.
All knowledge work requires a delicate and continuously shifting balance between delivery – exploiting existing knowledge – and discovery – exploring new knowledge. This need to balance discovery and delivery can be found across the entire innovation cycle: from technology innovation over performance and sustaining innovation to disruptive innovation. It has been a driving concern for specific approaches such as Lean Product and Process Development as well as The Kanban Method, as exemplified in examples such as: developing a new product that requires novel features (discovery) while at the same time managing the overall risk that is involved in developing those features (delivery); improving agility and predictability of an organization that may require substantial change (discovery) while at the same time keeping resistance to change under control (delivery); a startup that requires an initial focus on finding problem/solution fit or product market fit (discovery) but then needs to develop the organization to delivery at scale (delivery); etc.
In each of the examples above, too much emphasis on discovery may result in a disconnection with the past leading to resistance to change, increasing delivery risk, and non-adoption of innovation. Too little emphasis on discovery (and consequently too much emphasis on delivery) may lead to not being prepared for the future resulting in stagnation and the risk of being disrupted. Discovery Kanban systems are Kanban systems that help to balance discovery and delivery while moving from a mindset of episodic (one-off) innovation and change towards a culture of continuous innovation and change. Discovery Kanban systems work across the entire discovery cycle starting from pre-hypothesis moving into hypothesis validation and ending in post-hypothesis. In this presentation, we will discuss the different elements of Discovery Kanban, examples and underlying principles.
This Limited WIP Society Munich talk look at emerging patterns of kanban boards and kanban systems at differing levels of organizational maturity. It presents a new simplified model for understanding maturity and how it relates to fragile, resilient, robust & antifragile organizations, and presents suggestions on how to catalyze evolutionary change using different mechanisms as maturity improves. For Kanban Coaches and Change Leaders.
Discovery Kanban is a synthesis of a number of distinct threads of entrepreneurial thinking --Lean Startup, Kanban, OODA, PCDA, and Optionality--into an approach that helps firms address the challenge of executing and refining proven business models in parallel with exploring options for novel business opportunities. It fosters a management discipline of dual strategies of both exploitation and exploration, delivery and discovery that is applicable at different levels of scale in the organization.
In this presentation we will elaborate on the core principles of Discovery Kanban and some practical examples. We will show how (traditional) Delivery and Discovery Kanban are similar but different. We will discuss several examples of Discovery Kanban systems based on dual strategies and how they catalyze a different change in the organization. We will demonstrate how Discovery Kanban assists the discovery process and the integration of discovery and delivery at the different levels of scale.
In this presentation we take a systems perspective on change. We use constraints (over constraining, lack of constraints, governing and enabling constraints) as a way to understand the nature of change. We argue that this new understanding is a pre-requisite to design effective change programmes and show how it can be used to design effective kanban systems for change that help to create a healthy flow in the change.

Der Großteil unseres Arbeitslebens ist davon geprägt, Arbeitsabläufe und Ressourcen zu optimieren um Produkte effizient herzustellen bzw. Dienstleistungen zu erbringen. Dies funktioniert sehr gut, so lange das Angebot die Bedürfnisse und Erwartungen der Kunden trifft.
Ändert sich die Marktsituation durch neue Technologien oder Angebote von Wettbewerbern, die die Bedürfnisse der Kunden besser bedienen, birgt die klassische Arbeitsform die Gefahr, notwendige Anpassungen des Angebots zu versäumen.
Aussagen wie "Wir müssen kreativer werden!" oder "Wir müssen uns besser vom Wettbewerb abgrenzen!" sind typische Indikatoren, dass ein neuer Ansatz benötigt wird.
I.d.R. ist nicht offensichtlich, wie die geänderten Erwartungen und Bedürfnisse der Kunden gelagert sind. Daher wird eine explorative Arbeitsweise benötigt, die es erlaubt, die Bedürfnisse zu erfassen, Ideen zu entwickeln und anhand von Prototypen neue Angebote kostengünstig und schnell zu testen. Design Thinking ist eine solche Arbeitsform.

Auf der Suche nach Innovationen werden viele Wege gegangen, von denen nicht alle wirklich zielgerichtet sind, sondern oft den Zufall als Freund haben. Design Thinking ist dabei ein vielversprechender und vor allem ganzheitlicher Ansatz, der das systematische Produzieren von Innovationen möglich macht und fördert. Neben den theoretischen Grundlagen steht vor allem auch die Praxis im Vordergrund des kurzweiligen Vortrags.

La gestion visuelle Kanban - Daniel DoironAgile Montréal
A) Est-ce que votre gestion du risque est rassembleuse, ouverte sur la discussion, qualitative, visuelle, peu couteuse, rapide et supportant plusieurs taxonomies ?
Arrêtez les approches quantitatives en matière de gestion des risques qui sont souvent trop subjectives et non agiles.
B) Vos indicateurs de gestion ont-ils une valeur prédictive sur vos performances à venir? Sont-ils simples, pertinents, visuels et se génèrent automatiquement?
Si une approche basée sur la pensée scientifique des Edwards Deming, Eli Goldratt, Peter Drucker vous intéresse, alors vous serez plus efficace à identifier les systèmes globalement saturés, les systèmes localement saturés et les sources de variabilité de vos processus. Et vous aurez des solutions en main!
Votre avantage: Une fois ces concepts connus, vous n'aurez besoin d'aucun budget ou permission pour rayonner tout autrement en matière d'agilité au sein de vos équipes.
Daniel Doiron est conférencier international en matière de Kanban pour la SCRUM ALLIANCE et le LEAN KANBAN UNIVERSITY. En 2015 et 2016, il aura visité Miami et Shanghai pour ces deux organisations. Daniel a récemment contribué à la nouvelle bible Kanban écrite par David Anderson et Andy Carmichael, et sa contribution a été reconnue dans l'ouvrage. Le livre 'Essential Kanban Condensed' est disponible gratuitement sur le web et pave la voix au chemin alternatif vers l'agilité au 21ième siècle. En parallèle, Daniel s'affère à améliorer certains concepts de coaching propres à Kanban et à revisiter les paradigmes en matière de fluidité des idées.

The case study discusses the potential of drone delivery and the challenges that need to be addressed before it becomes widespread.
Key takeaways:
Drone delivery is in its early stages: Amazon's trial in the UK demonstrates the potential for faster deliveries, but it's still limited by regulations and technology.
Regulations are a major hurdle: Safety concerns around drone collisions with airplanes and people have led to restrictions on flight height and location.
Other challenges exist: Who will use drone delivery the most? Is it cost-effective compared to traditional delivery trucks?
Discussion questions:
Managerial challenges: Integrating drones requires planning for new infrastructure, training staff, and navigating regulations. There are also marketing and recruitment considerations specific to this technology.
External forces vary by country: Regulations, consumer acceptance, and infrastructure all differ between countries.
Demographics matter: Younger generations might be more receptive to drone delivery, while older populations might have concerns.
Stakeholders for Amazon: Customers, regulators, aviation authorities, and competitors are all stakeholders. Regulators likely hold the greatest influence as they determine the feasibility of drone delivery.

Enterprise Services Planning
*Kanban is a way to organize and manage work. It improves
service delivery speed & predictability through a combination of
limiting work-in-progress & deferred commitment
It uses visual management and Lean techniques such as limiting
the amount of work in progress, and probabilistic forecasting.
Kanban helps to balance demand with capability.
Balancing demand and capability = improved flow.
Improved flow = Improved predictability.
Enterprise Services Planning (ESP) is an enterprise-wide
management solution that leverages Kanban*
to improve each service within your business.

Front-loaded – Most of the value is
realized early in the lifespan of the
product with a long residual tail
Utility Function Shape
Bell curve – Most of the value is
realized in the middle of the lifespan
with slow initial uptake and a
somewhat symmetrical tail off
Back-loaded – Initial take-up is slow
with value realized close to a natural

Items with the same shape carry the

It is also wise to hedge risk by
allocating capacity in the system for

Forecasting methods
ESP relies on two types of forecasting approaches
Reference class forecasting
Monte Carlo simulation
Reference class forecasting requires an assumption
of an equilibrium – the near future will reflect the
continuing conditions of the recent past
We sample data from a period in the recent past and use it
to forecast future behavior
The sample period is determined by evaluating the
volatility in kanban system liquidity

Scaling Principles
1. Scale out in a service-oriented fashion one service

2. Design each kanban system from first principles
using STATIK, do not attempt to design a grand
solution at enterprise scale
3. Use the Kanban Cadences as the management
system that enable balance, leading to better

Enterprise Services Planning
3 Organizational Steps
Foster a culture focused
on continual
fit-for-purpose service
delivery
Seeing Services
“Kanban” each service
Feedback Loop System
Identify interdependent services
in your organization
Use the STATIK method to create a
Kanban system for each service
Implement a set of responsive
feedback loops
56. Copyright Lean Kanban Inc. dja@leankanban.com @lki_dja
Enterprise Services Planning
Step 1: Seeing Services
Examples:
HR provides services throughout the organization, but they
also need services from IT
Marketing provides services to product development but they
need services from Sales and from IT
IT provides services to Customer Support. There is an
interdependency between Customer Support, QA, and IT
Engineering.
Different feature teams or product teams may have
dependencies on each other
Many groups are dependent upon specialist individuals
57. Copyright Lean Kanban Inc. dja@leankanban.com @lki_dja
Enterprise Services Planning
Step 2: Kanban the Services
Use STATIK (Systems Thinking Approach to
Implementing Kanban) for each identified service…
1. Understand what makes the service “fit for purpose”
2. Understand sources of dissatisfaction regarding current
delivery
3. Analyze sources of and nature of demand
4. Analyze current delivery capability
5. Model the service delivery workflow
6. Identify & define classes of service
7. Design the kanban system
8. Socialize design & negotiate implementation

We have walked through the Systems Thinking Approach to Introducing Kanban. This process tends to be iterative. Don’t be afraid to go back and adjust your kanban system as new information emerges or your needs change.
There are 3 Change Management Principles designed to frame an evolutionary approach to improvement. Be aware that the Kanban Method is applied to the way you work now, and it will help you evolve the way you work gradually over time.
[Briefly walk through each of the principles. See David’s blog at http://www.djaa.com/principles-general-practices-kanban-method if you want help with how to explain each.]
The KMP II class is built around the 7 cadences of the Kanban Method. The focus is on institutionalizing the feedback loops and developing templates for each meeting or review including a list of who will attend and what information they must bring to the meetings. The objective is to drive improvement and evolutionary change through management feedback loops implemented as a series of rituals happening on cadences tailored to the specific needs of the business. Strategy Review is out-of-scope until the Portfolio Management module of the ESP class.
Use the scheduling guidance from Day 2 coupled to the project planning from Day 4 to manage integration points together with a fixed delivery date class of service for the dependent parts
There is a variety of ways you can communicate information on a kanban ticket. You don’t need to put too much on the ticket!
