Key note - Lean Kanban Central Europe 2013 - Kanban & Evolutionary ManagementDavid Anderson
Exploring how Kanban can be used to improve the fitness for purpose of an organization. Comparing the development of Kanban with the journey of Bruce Lee as he rebelled against traditional Chinese martial arts teaching and developed his own "way without way."
Closing key note from Lean Kanban India. Understanding the appropriate application of kanban systems, appropriate use of Enterprise Services Planning, and appropriate application of the Kanban Method for Evolutionary Change. Mapping to Cynefin complexity framework
Kanban implementations have become ubiquitous around the world. Many are very large scale with over 5000 people using the technique. However, enterprise are struggling to implement end-to-end pull systems. Why? This talk looks at how to achieve true Lean workflows with deferred commitment and just-in-time replenishment in professional services enterprises
Kanban is a 2nd generation approach to Agile which enables practitioners to evolve their own unique processes. This was my key note address to the Scrum Gathering China, Hangzhou 2016

Just say #no____ the altenative path to enterprise agilityDavid Anderson
The Kanban Method & Enterprise Services Planning have, for a decade, offered an alternative to Agile methodologies for improving business agility across professional services organizations employing thousands of knowledge workers. This key note highlights why Kanban is the least disruptive approach to agility but the most radical alternative to Agile
An understanding of sociology and social psychology was the differentiator for Agile software development methods. This talk looks at how Kanban can be used for social engineering to improve innovation and trust, and how an understanding of sociology was used to design the Kanban Method and shape the community that advocates it.
Key Note - London Lean Kanban Day - Deep Kanban - Worth the investment?David Anderson
Most Kanban implementations are internally focused and intended aid coordination, visibility, decision making and provide relief from over-burdening. These shallow implementations miss the opportunity to improve business agility and service delivery. The Depth of Kanban Assessment Framework helps managers assess the depth of a Kanban implementation and explains the value in deeper implementations that are externally focused and deliver real business benefits
Key Note - Lean Kanban North America 2013 - Beyond KanbanDavid Anderson
Getting beyond the use of kanban systems and the Kanban Method to truly improve business performance through improved risk management. This talk looks at both the qualitative and quantitative risk management techniques enabled by the Kanban. And defines a measure of kanban system liquidity that can be used as a leading indicator to monitor the effectiveness and reliability of probabilistic forecasts based on historical system performance

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?

We have to stop adopting defined processes (or methodologies as they known in the IT business). Instead we need to look to adopt a new style of management that encourages an adaptive capability to emerge in our organizations. This talk will look at Bruce Lee‘s rejection of patterned styles of Chinese Martial Arts and emergence of his Jeet Kune Do approach and compare it to the emergence of the Kanban Method. The talk will illustrate how to use fitness criteria metrics aligned to customer desires to manage an organization that is continually evolving its workflows to improve service delivery and customer satisfaction.

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.

Enterprise Services Planning - Effective Middle ManagementDavid Anderson
This may be the first time, I really explained Enterprise Services Planning (ESP) effectively. Many people in the audience seemed to understand for the first time.
An understanding of sociology and social psychology has been present in the design of the Kanban Method - an evolutionary approach to improving service delivery in professional services, knowledge work and creative industries. This talk shows how to use Kanban for social engineering, the aspects of social psychology and sociology built into the design of the method, and how this knowledge was used to develop and grow the movement and community globally over the last 8 years.

Enterprise Services Planning: Defining Key Performance IndicatorsDavid Anderson
Defining KPIs for use in Enterprise Services Planning and with Kanban systems. Understanding the difference between KPIs, Improvement Guides, and General Health Indicators. Understanding how KPIs drive behavior such as establishing multiple classes of service. Relating KPIs to evolutionary change. KPIs are Fitness Criteria Metrics with defined threashold values
"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.
"Fitness for Purpose" - Resilience & Agility in Modern BusinessDavid Anderson
Understanding "fitness for purpose". A new way to look at market segmentation based on identity. Defining fitness criteria metrics. Sense and respond. Using Kanban Systems to increase service delivery agility. Using the Kanban Method to catalyze and evolve your business to be "fitter for purpose". Making sense of a complex market using clustering of narratives from front-line staff. Remaining resilient through frequent "fitness" reviews
Fitness for purpose, aligning capability to customer expectations. How evolutionary processes reveal that the fitness for purpose of a business has both a product/service component and a service delivery component. Kanban systems have been shown to help improve service delivery. This presentation shows how to derive and use the correct metrics to guide process improvements and steer service delivery methods to be fitter for purpose

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.

Bruce Lee rejected traditional teaching and styles
of Chinese martial arts
• There are some parallels in
the story of Bruce Lee and
the emergence of his
approach to Kung Fu
• Lee rejected the idea of
following a particular style
of Chinese Martial Arts
6. dja@leankanban.com @lkuceo Copyright Lean Kanban Inc.
“Dry land swimming” provides a false sense of
capability
• The only way to learn is to train with a live opponent
• Lee rejected the many styles of martial arts for various reasons,
mainly that they gave the practitioners a false sense of
capability, putting them at risk in real combat situations
• He was against Kata (learning patterns without an opponent)
and described them in derogatory terms such as "dry land
swimming.“
8. dja@leankanban.com @lkuceo Copyright Lean Kanban Inc.
Jeet Kune Do encourages development of a
uniquely personal style
• a framework from
which to pick &
develop a personal
style
• an evolutionary
approach where
adoption of
maneuvers is
learned &
reinforced by
training with an
opponent
• Nothing was sacred
"absorb that which is
useful“
discard the remainder
9. dja@leankanban.com @lkuceo Copyright Lean Kanban Inc.
Training with an opponent provides the core
feedback loop to drive adaptation
Lee pursued ever
more elaborate
approaches to
protected real
combat training
to enable the
closed loop
learning that was
core to the
evolutionary
nature of JKD
10. dja@leankanban.com @lkuceo Copyright Lean Kanban Inc.
Kata are not adaptive
In comparison with JKD, patterned styles of martial
arts taught with "kata" were open loop and not
adaptive. There is no learning from practicing kata
11. dja@leankanban.com @lkuceo Copyright Lean Kanban Inc.
Lee’s genius was recognizing hand-to-hand
combat is an unordered problem
• Patterned styles are
perfectly good for
controlled circumstances
such as competition
• Sporting combat is an
ordered domain problem
• Street fighting is not orderly
and therefore emergent
practice is required
• Unordered problem
required a new philosophy
13. dja@leankanban.com @lkuceo Copyright Lean Kanban Inc.
Traditional Change is an A to B process
• A is where you are now. B is a destination.
• B is either defined (from a methodology definition)
• or designed (by tailoring a framework or using a model
based approach such as VSM* or TOC TP**)
• To get from A to B, a change agency*** will guide a
transition initiative to install B into the organization

Adopting new processes challenges people
psychologically & sociologically
• New roles attack identity
• New responsibilities using new
techniques & practices threaten
self-esteem & social status
• Most people resist most change
because individually they have
more to lose than gain
• It is safer to be conservative and
stick to current practices and
avoid shaking up the current
social hierarchy
• Only the brave, the reckless
or the desperate will pursue
grand changes
17. dja@leankanban.com @lkuceo Copyright Lean Kanban Inc.
The Kanban Method…
• Rejects the traditional
approach to change
• Believes, it is better to avoid
resistance than to push
harder against it
• Don’t install new processes
• Don’t reorganize
• Is designed for carbon-based
life forms
• Evolutionary change that is
humane
18. dja@leankanban.com @lkuceo Copyright Lean Kanban Inc.
The Kanban Method…
• Catalyzes improvement
through use of kanban
systems and visual boards*
• Takes its name from the use
of kanban but it is just a name
• Anyone who thinks Kanban is
just about kanban (boards &
systems) is truly mistaken
*also known as "kanban" in Chinese and in Japanese when written with Chinese characters

Principles behind the Kanban Method
• Start with what you do now
• Agree to pursue evolutionary change
• Initially, respect roles, responsibilities and job
titles
• Encourage acts of leadership at all levels
The first 3 principles were specifically chosen to
address System 1 objections, to flow around the
rock of emotional resistance in humans

Learn to view what you do now as a set of services
(that can be improved):
• What to look for…
• Creative work is service-oriented
• Service delivery involves workflow
• Workflow involves a series of knowledge discovery
activities
• What to do…
• Map the knowledge discovery workflow
• Pay attention to how & why work arrives
• Track work flowing through the service
The Kanban Lens

STATIK
(systems thinking approach to introducing kanban)
1. Understand Sources of Dissatisfaction
From viewpoint of internal & external
stakeholders
Sources of variability that cause dissatisfaction
2. Demand and Capability Analysis
(Ideally) By work item type & class of service
3. Model Workflow
Understand the knowledge discovery process
by type
4. Discover classes of service
5. Design a Kanban System Visualization
6. Roll out Plan
This process tends to
be iterative
For each service…

Kanban’s 6 Specific Practices
45. dja@leankanban.com @lkuceo Copyright Lean Kanban Inc.
Start with what you do now
• The Kanban Method evolved with the principle
that it “should be like water” - enable change
while avoiding sources of resistance
• With Kanban you start with what you do now,
and "kanbanize" it, catalyzing the evolutionary
process into action. Changes to processes in
use will occur
• Evaluating whether a change is truly an
improvement is done using fitness criteria
that evaluate an external outcome
46. dja@leankanban.com @lkuceo Copyright Lean Kanban Inc.
Fitness criteria are metrics that measure
observable external outcomes
• Fitness criteria are metrics
that measure things
customers or other external
stakeholders value
• Delivery time
• Quality
• Predictability
• Safety (conformance to
regulatory requirements)
• or metrics that value actual
outcomes such as
• customer satisfaction
• employee satisfaction

Which system is fitter?
We don’t know!
System B is faster but without understanding
customer expectations, both may be fit enough

Joe Campbell first blogged about the similarity in philosophy between the
Kanban Method and the teachings of Bruce Lee. He coined the phrase “Kanban
should be like water”.
The data on slides 47 & 48 was provided by Raymond Keating of CME Group.
Hakan Forss of Avega Group in Stockholm has been instrumental in defining the
Kanban Kata and evangelizing its importance as part of a Kaizen culture.
Real options thinking inspired by the work of Chris Matts, Olav Maassen &
Upstream Kanban pioneered by Patrick Steyaert.
References to Sense & Respond are inspired by the work of Stephen Parry.
Don Reinertsen first suggested using virtual kanban systems for service delivery.
