Scrum vs. Kanban: What Does Your Doctor Recommend?

Wednesday, December 7, 2022 @ 11:00 am — 12:00pm (MST)

This session is going to focus on the ongoing and persistent nonsense surrounding kanban and scrum (this IS the softer version). We will start by defining a few core aspects of kanban and scrum to clarify where these ideas are from. We then begin dismantling all the confusing, incorrect, sad, frustrating, and impediment-creating comparison charts surrounding scrum vs kanban. We will use one from a blog (which is laced with problems to boot) and show you an ACTUAL Scrum vs Kanban comparison that does not make me sad. PLEASE have images ready of any comparisons you have seen or used. If you don’t like them or like them – have the images to paste into Miro. We will work through as many as we can. What we hope is that (1) you will have a much clearer idea of the differences and similarities, (2) you will see some of the patterns people use to make these comparisons worse so you can see them faster, and (3), YOU can point out areas that are wrong or need adjustments with the new comparison I’ll show you (so I can improve it).

Organizers: Jake Calabrese

Please note: All of our Learning Labs are interactive sessions using Zoom and Miro. They are not just us talking to a slideshow. We invite all participants to collaborate on a virtual whiteboard (Miro) and engage in conversations with us and each other. While you are welcome to join in audio-only mode, it will be a challenge to participate, and you may not get much out of the session. Because these sessions are interactive, we do not record them. If you are not familiar with Miro, you can learn more at academy.miro.com.
