Report from Lean Kanban 2009

Kanban is an emerging practice in Lean software development. Founded on solid principles of flow and utilization theory, it seems to address many of the issues people have had with Agile approaches. Over the next few years, Lean Kanban is going to become an important part of the software professional's toolkit.

The Lean Kanban Conference 2009, May 6-9, 2009 in Miame, brought together practitioners and thought leaders to discuss how to help the community go forward. This podcast is a report by Alan Shalloway about what he, Guy Beaver, and Alan Chedalawada (all from Net Objectives) learned from this special event.

Over the next few weeks, Alan will be posting some blogs about what he learned at the conference. See blogs.netobjectives.com. It will be the topic of several upcoming podcasts on Lean-Agile Straight Talk.

And make your plans now to attend the UK Lean Kanban conference in September. For information, see www.ukleanconference.com
