What is Kanban? - Agile Coach (2019)

https://www.atlassian.com/agile/kanban Kanban is a work management system designed to help you visualize your work, limit work in progress (WIP), and maximize efficiency. It can often be a powerful tool for teams that want to improve transparency, communication, and alignment within their workplace.

In this video, we’ll give you background on how the kanban methodology was developed, what its core principles are, and how it could benefit your team.

We'll also show you how you can get started with kanban yourself.

We’ll bring you step-by-step through the process of creating and managing a kanban board, a project management tool that uses cards and columns to compose a visual "workflow." Then, we’ll cover how to fill that board with kanban cards, which are visual artifacts that represent different work items. Finally, we’ll show you how to set up work in progress limits to maximize your team’s efficiency.

By the end of this video, you should be equipped with all of the fundamentals you’ll need to start using kanban to improve your team’s work.
