Is Kanban for Design and Innovation the Right Course for Me?
The KDI course will address your pains and problems if:
- You work as BA/PO and don’t feel KSI covers your part of the system fully.
- You want to learn what’s before the commitment point and how to manage this work.
- The upstream work is iterative or takes very long. You cannot visualize it as a pipeline.
- Your backlog is 1,000 items. How should you know what to commit?
- You ask how much time should you spend in upstream decreasing uncertainty? When can you start working on the requests?
- You are product-focused and on the path to be a Kanban Management Professional (KMP).
