What is Kanban? Is it more than just post-it notes on a wall? Is it a conspiracy to sell sharpies? Aren’t there apps we can use instead?

• Optimising the flow of work, whether you’re in a team or wokring by yourself

• Why limiting work in-progress is important
• The simple metrics that will mean estimating “how long” something will take becomes easy as pie!
• Why physical over digital boards is vital to getting started
