About this talk

Lean starts with kanban by Michael Balle


Speaker pitch
Michael BallĂ©, PhD. is a long-time lean management practitioner and has helped many CEOs to establish their own lean cultures. The co-author of The Lean Strategy, he has shown how lean is a people-first, value-based strategy. In this talk, he will share how kanban is the starting-point tool to learn and understand lean’s upside-down thinking.



  • Value in scale-up: where is the lean competitive edge

  • Flow is a means to find just-in-time problems

  • Establishing a culture of “problem first” and problem solving

  • What can kanban teach you about agility


Why did we choose this session ?
Because Michael was there 2 years ago and he helped us having another point of view about Kanban by sharing his beliefs. That’s a pleasure for us to let him close the conference.
