Currently, there is no question that business agility is required. You will also be hard pressed to find anyone arguing against the core principles of agility. But most enterprise organizations have not yet reached the levels of agility we talk about. Whether due to shallow practices focused attempts or to lack of any effort. Agile in the enterprise is trying to cross the chasm or get out of the trough of disillusionment. We will talk about how Kanban is helping the concept of business agility cross the chasm into the zone of pragmatic enlightenment. What is it about Kanban and the "free market / upull based change management" approach I've been using recently in a couple of enterprises that help accelerate the journey towards agility without risking its stickiness. Yuval Yeret Yuval leads the Kanban/Flow practice for AgileSparks, an international lean agile consulting company based out of Israel. He led several strategic long-term lean/agile initiatives in large enterprises and is one of the leading Kanban Practitioners and Trainers focused on the enterprise product development world. Yuval is a big believer in pragmatic, best-of-breed solution design, taking the best from each approach, avoiding Dogma, therefore it is not a surprise to find him among the leadership of the pragmatic and evolutionary Kanban movement. He recently received the Brickell Key Award for Lean Kanban community excellence, driving Kanban adoption in Israel. He published "Holy Land Kanban" based on his thinking and writing at yuvalyeret.com. You can also find him playing national league volleyball in Israel and listening to audio books like there is no tomorrow.
