A New Way to Think About Getting Work Done!
Step-by-Step Kanban for Busy Managers
Kanban is a way to organize work, communicate with your team and provide a standardized approach to keep everyone working together. Â
We offer online management training in the Work Smart Club – our Center for Work and Well-being. Turn your devices into a learning hub!
Communication is one of the most important functions of managers, and can also be a source of conflict and tension when it breaks down.
Kanban is a complete process that outlines workflow with the communication flow that is required for everyone, at every level, to have the information they need to get the job done, on time and with the available resources.Â
If you want to keep work flowing without stalls and shutdown, use this Toolkit – It is a complete, step-by-step guide to setting up a systemized workflow.Â
FACT:
The brain processes visual information 60,000 times faster than text.
Traditionally, people cram in more work, than they have time for, and without regard for what is already in process creating bottlenecks, errors and overload for themselves and staff. Kanban is a new way to think about organizing work.
We have set up this toolkit and break the entire process down, into manageable steps to ensure you feel confident every step of the way.
In this Toolkit you will learn:
- The underlying principles of Kanban and why it is so successful
- The steps needed to create a complete system of work and communication feedback
- How to think about, and organize, work in progress, to avoid overload and bottlenecks
- How to structure your Kanban board to reflect important aspects of work, ownership, and information
PLUS
- How to manage flow and prevent bottlenecks
- How to make the standards and policies explicit and avoid assumptions (assumptions are the death of productivity)
- How to set up feedback loops to make sure everyone has the information they need
- Tips on implementing the Kanban approach to workflow
