Core, Context, and “Blinks” in Kanban

What can we learn from how the US military learnt to handle VBIEDs (Vehicle Borne Improvised Explosive Devices) in Iraq? This session introduces the concept of Blinks to understand how we miss key information when we have a series of Kanban boards, each feeding into one other.

This session takes an example to show how even a set of well executed individual Boards can run into trouble, and shares experiences on how to overcome this via a clear view of what is Core and Context to the value being delivered.
