The document outlines an agenda for a Lean Coffee discussion. It includes an introduction to Lean Coffee and Kanban concepts (10 minutes), a demonstration of a Lean Coffee discussion using Kanban principles (35 minutes), and a discussion on takeaways (5 minutes). The Lean Coffee discussion involves gathering topics, voting to prioritize them, and discussing them in timed intervals. The overall goal is to have a simple yet powerful structured meeting with little preparation that gets people thinking and talking about lean principles.
