Title: Measure and Manage Flow in Practice
Proposer: zsolt_fabok
Type: Session
Duration: 45 minutes
Description: Measure and Manage Flow is the third of the core principles of Kanban. It means that the members of the organisation are supposed to measure their progress and use the gathered information to improve their way of working. The most famous measurement tool for Kanban is the Cumulative Flow Diagram, but there are other usable approaches out there.
During the last two years I tried out those different measurement approaches, and in my presentation I’m going to show you those which worked well for me. I’ll also cover how to manage your organisation by using the gathered data - e.g. how to use lead time for fine tuning the delivery process - and scientific methods to ensure that the changes are permanent and the organization moves forward.

Roger: I've no strong feelings either way
[Ewan: Probably YES. Trying to get through everything quickly, so haven't looked at the slides, but I like the topic, and as a 45 min session can hopefully fit in to the prog]
