Scrum and Kanban: Chocolate and Peanut Butter?  
Damon Poole, Founder and CTO of AccuRev and President of the Agile Bazaar 

Damon Poole

By now you’ve probably heard of Kanban, the newest Agile methodology on the block. Much as Scrum and XP play well together, so do Scrum and Kanban. In fact, all three work well together.

This session will introduce Kanban from a Scrum perspective, show how the Lean practice of “One Piece Flow” is the key to both, and look at how to mix and match Scrum and Kanban to fine tune a process that fits your circumstances. This will include: decoupling once-per iteration activities from the iteration, work-in-progress limits, and the concept of “pull.”
