Kanban Class, San Francisco Nov 16/17
I’ll be holding my only Kanban class in North America this year in San Francisco on November 16-17. The two day class is now divided into 2 parts:
- Day 1 - Mechanics of Kanban
- The first day focuses on case studies, theory and exercises to map a value-stream, model a flow and design a kanban board, identify work item types and classes of service and set WIP limits
- Day 2 - Kaizen
- The second day focuses on creating a Kaizen (continuous improvement) culture in your organization and using Kanban as a catalyst of change. Attendees will learn how to identify improvement opportunities managing bottlenecks, reducing waste, and reducing variability. They will also learn how to choose and use appropriate metrics to drive change and measure improvement together with an understanding of organizational maturity and how Kanban accelerates the achievement of higher maturity behaviors such as quantative management, causal analysis and resolution and organizational innovation and deployment
Register Now! Both days at the San Francisco State University Downtown Campus for just $1300.
