Achieving Flow in your teams’ work – and in fact the overall organization – has been gaining ground over the last several years. Adopting Lean and Flow principles has become integral to using the Kanban Method, Value Stream Management as well as in Scaled Agile methods such as SAFe, and is being seen clearly as a significant catalyst to achieving Organizational/ Business Agility. With the recent 5.1 release, SAFe(R) has fully integrated Flow metrics which have long been espoused by the Kanban community.
At Digité, we have been involved with helping organizations improve Flow, maximize throughput and reduce lead-time to market for over a decade. In this month’s newsletter, we decided to share some of our top blog posts and webinars that look at different aspects of Flow and how Flow can be dramatically beneficial to your team and organization. We hope these will help you in your own Agile initiatives.
