The
Team
“For me, the even flow, the less worrying about how long things
were going to take, and the more attention to actually getting things
done PROPERLY, were the main reasons to try Kanban.”

“I’ve have found it far easier to get buy in from development teams …
They like the flexibility it brings and particularly like the focus on getting
things to done.””
“Kanban boards are better at highlighting pain points in a team’s
processes””
“The process has been liberating. We’re no longer bound by iteration commitments, and so it’s easier to be realistic about moving priorities and delivery. If only as an exercise for the team to redesign the way
they work, it has been worthwhile.”
“Most POs will, when asked to prioritise work for an upcoming
sprint, reserve the right to change anything that hasn’t been started after planning by the team. With Kanban, we don’t have to worry about that affecting the team’s ability to deliver on their sprint
commitment.”
“The flexibility of the format works as long as you keep other measures and check-ins in place. For example,
monitoring lead times, managing blockers, and have regular
sizing/planning/retros in place.””
“Limited knowledge and experience of Kanban causes nervousness … We found it hard to get buy-in from our
PO”
“… difficult to communicate timescales for a feature set or story,
or to build any real confidence in the team’s ability to deliver””
“It can be tricky. Getting the team to keep within WIP limits, swarm on stories to get them complete, and keep to the backlog priority can be
challenging.”

“How can we keep track of progress for all roles?”
“How can we report progress back to the various teams/departments?”
“How can we make sure team members aren’t being overloaded?”
“It is a refreshing, potentially revolutionary, way of working to
recruit more effectively”
