Do you know a better way, but no one will listen? Why wait? You can do it by yourself. I will share my story of how I started a Kanban project by myself. I’ll include some positives and negatives, and the impact on my department and company. The Power of One can make big changes.

You know that Kanban and Agile can help your company, but no one is listening? This is the story of how one person can transform a department and company. I’ll cover the baby steps and big leaps, the highs and lows, the struggles and successes. One person brought Kanban into a non-IT service group and it changed the way the department worked. The success of the department was visible to other departments and the concepts spread. All from the actions of one person. You can do it, too.
