One Man’s Walk in work

Jim Benson and I are starting Seattle Lean Coffee on Wednesdays from 8:30am-10am at Uptown Espresso on Westlake & Republican.

We’ll be talking about things like visualizing work, limiting WIP, and *self organizing teams! If you’re in Seattle, join us this and every Wednesday morning!

In fact, it goes beyond Agile and has been translated across many industries, actually starting in Toyota’s manufacturing and supply chain. Today many of the fastest moving software teams that use Agile & Scrum are also adopting Lean thinking to get even better.
