Enhance Your Scrum with Kanban Practices
Kanban and Scrum are Complementary Practices:
Kanban is often seen as a separate or opposing methodology, but this course shows how Kanban aligns seamlessly with Scrum, enhancing its structure rather than contradicting it.
​
Kanban is for more than Maintenance and Support:
Many view Kanban as useful only for interrupt-driven tasks like maintenance, but this course reveals how it can benefit any Scrum team by introducing flow into daily operations and fostering continuous improvement. Kanban goes beyond visualizing tasks to bring meaningful flow controls that drive efficiency. Kanban can provide value throughout the entire Scrum process, both inside and outside Sprints.
​
This course helps product owners, Scrum Masters, and Developers get a handle on work in Scrum.
