Session Title
Say Yes to Modern Management!
Overview
It’s the 21st century and management and leadership practices still largely resemble those in the previous century. Leaders have been stuck; while knowing there is a need to change but not having the tools to approach management differently. Kanban changes this, it allows us to pragmatically say yes to modern practices that are good for companies, their customers, their partners, and their employees. Let’s explore how Kanban allows us to say yes to managing the work, not the workers; yes to supporting diversity, yes to innovation, yes to continuous improvement, and yes to balance.
