Synopsis

A Kanban System for Software Development provides an alternative means
of creating an Agile Development process using Lean Thinking. Creating
a Kanban System is not as simple as adopting a previously defined
process as a starting point. Instead, a team needs to come up a model
of its own process which will form the basis for further continuous
improvement. This talk will introduce 5 steps that a team can use to
create their own Agile process using a Kanban System for Software
Development.
