Four Kanban Principles
1. Start with what you do (k)now—regardless of how ugly it is
2. Agree to pursue incremental, evolutionary change
3. Respect the current process —roles, responsibilities & titles
4. Leadership at all levels
Kanban is not a pro
cess!
It’s a change management method:
something you DO to a pro
cess.
