Presentation: Tweet"Kanban Primer - A play by Arne Roock, Bernd Schiffer and Markus Andrezak"

Track: Lean and Kanban / Time: Friday 10:35 - 11:35 / Location: Falconer Salen

The Kanban Primer is a stage play by stage play veterans Arne Roock, Bernd Schiffer and Arne Roock, which will introduce the principles and even some more intricate aspects of Kanban in an entertaining way that still transports the relevant information.

Rather than experiencing Death by Powerpoint, lean back and enjoy the show and rest assured to have a ground level of knowledge on what Kanban is and what it is not and how it may be applied. The story of the play is based on Kanban implementation at real companies.
