If you happen to visit some of Kanban University’s courses and now wondering if this class is right for you, I’ve explained that in a separate blog post.
what is it about…
To get your company flying successfully, you not only need technically clean visualization, a clear focus, and good feedback loops.
You also need people who actively shape the desired improvement. And you need the ability to co-create an agile workflow.
Enhance your ability to successfully execute Flight Levels initiatives at all levels (2/3/FLSA). This workshop expands your toolbox for leading larger Flight Levels change initiatives.
If you are wondering what the Flight Levels model is about, here is a quick intro post for you.
the format of the course
The training course program is expanded by preliminary self-training and “homework.” This allows the most efficient use of time in the training sessions for discussions, and individual and group exercises.
This training incorporates many concepts of “training from the back of the room”, in which the participants say and do more than the instructor: short blocks of theory alternate with practice and exercises.
This course could be delivered online (4 modules, 4h for each module, and exercises in between modules) or in-person (2 full days)
