Many multidisciplinary teams are responsible for maintaining a product (or a service) as well as for developing that same product. Telephone calls, emails with seemingly small questions, minor changes and large projects hijack the valuable time of team members. This results in a lack of overview of the work, lack of insight into what work should prevail over other work, and a constant hassle with customers. Can Kanban offer a solution here? Yes, it can! Join the meetup to dig deeper into this!

How can we be more efficient? What are the things holding us back from delivering great customer value, faster?

Design Techniques to Inspire Your Kanban Boards
One of the most recognizable features of the Kanban Method is the Kanban board. These boards allow you to have a visual representation of your work.
