What Kanban Systems Improvement is About

The “Kanban Systems Improvement (KSI)” course from Kanban University is designed to deepen your understanding and skills in applying the Kanban Method in a more sophisticated and effective manner. This advanced course focuses on enhancing and scaling existing Kanban systems within organizations, aiming to drive greater efficiency, agility, and responsiveness across teams and departments. Participants learn to identify and address system bottlenecks, implement effective flow strategies, and utilize key Kanban metrics for continuous improvement.

Kanban Systems Improvement is ideal for those who wish to take their Kanban practice to the next level, ensuring their systems are robust, scalable, and aligned with the strategic goals of their organization.Improve visibility, communication, and collaboration wthin your team

Workshop format

Four 4-Hour Online Learning Labs or 2 Days Physical Labs

Who Will Benefit

The Kanban Systems Improvement (KSI) course is highly beneficial for individuals who have already completed the Kanban System Design (KSD) course and are looking to deepen their understanding and application of Kanban at scale. This course is particularly advantageous for those seeking to scale, manage, or optimize their service delivery systems. It's ideal for professionals who have a foundational grasp of Kanban concepts, such as STATIK, work item type, and classes of service, and are now ready to advance their skills in enhancing and expanding Kanban systems within their organizations. KSI is perfect for individuals who aspire to bring about significant improvements in workflow management, efficiency, and productivity in a scaled environment. It's crucial for those who have taken KSD and are now facing challenges in scaling and optimizing Kanban in complex and dynamic service delivery contexts

Learn to Design Kanban Systems: Core Skills You Will Master

• Mastering Evolutionary Change: Deepen your understanding of the fundamentals of evolutionary change within the Kanban methodology. Comprehend the motivations and benefits of adopting an evolutionary approach to change and understand how Kanban facilitates incremental improvements and adaptability in fast-paced business environments.

• Scaling and Managing Kanban Systems: Learning how to effectively scale Kanban systems, not just within teams, but also upstream, downstream, and in connection with other systems. Learn to run Kanban cadences proficiently, enabling you to manage and extend your Kanban systems across the organization. This theme addresses the challenges of scaling and offers strategies for maintaining efficiency and coherence in larger, more complex Kanban systems.

• Workflow Optimization and Metrics Utilization: Focusing on identifying and managing workflow challenges, identify bottlenecks, understand the sources of delays and variability, and strategies for enhancing flow. Gain practical knowledge on reducing delivery times and improving discovery processes. Learn to use key Kanban metrics like Lead Time, Run Charts, and Cumulative Flow Diagrams to drive continuous improvement and make informed decisions based on evolutionary change principles.
