Didn't expect it to be so straightforward. The principles of Kanban and Agile have been around for decades, originating in Japanese manufacturing. It's honestly mind blowing that 'Agile' is sometimes considered this new revolutionary way of delivering a project when it's derived from Lean methodology. Only difference is Agile caters to streamlining a software development process rather than a manufacturing process. JIRA just visualizes a methodology and practice that has existed since Toyota first implemented these concepts in the 40's. Surprised no one thought of this before.
This is the best video I found on Kanban. I have worked in scrum team and was looking to learn what is Kanban. I went through lot of videos with similar information but this video explained it the best. Thank you
1:43 (ish) "It's on the team to make kanban work for you" i.e. it's not a magical lantern you rub to make magical things happen. It's a tool that can be used effectively by certain-minded people. Good stuff right there.
A very simple so easy to understand that you immediately relate it to tasks that you have initiated and completed and you didnt realise you did implement Kanban. Ofcourse the scale of this will differ from task to task. Thank you Max
Studied in Quality Control the concept of kanbans and did not understand it fully , looked to youtube and did not find any better explanation than this video. Thank you
Ohh my god...Amazing, useful video...Very well presented 👍... What I understood about kanban from this video 1.Kanban is a really simple and useful system.But 2.No one in this world is capable of explaining it properly. Whenever they try to describe it they make it unnecessarily complex (exact opposite of the intent of kanban system 😂) 3.I looked about kanban in Google, Google images, other youtube videos etc...But the part that confused the most is about the words such as backlogs, WIP, etc...But after watching this video I am very clear about them and their purpose seems to be so revolutionary and its unbelievable usefulness... 4.Kanban is not just about manufacturing or production. It can be used in our daily life also.It increases productivity so effortlessly. 🎉 Kudos to the team ...Great work... 🎉❤️👍
This really helped me grasp Kanban and the other videos are fantastic. I realize Agile is complex but this video and the other videos break it out into simple concepts to get our teams moving on their journey.
Max, I am a fan! I’m totally brand new & I feel I’ve got the basic framework of Kanban. You have such an easy manner. I live the filming. Looking forward to seeing more! Wow. Onward & upward with FLOW!!
just to clarify lead time is not when you start working on a card to done. It is when the ticket arrives in your backlog to done... in Jira its the control chart and by choosing the right states you can either get lead time or cycle time....
Just started using Trello and your video series was a great refresher for understanding Kanban. I'd read about it before, but never put it into action. Off to a running start now. Thanks!
all the best words re content and how things explained. The shaking camera and running circles around the office to make it more "live" is a bit questionable though.
I loved this video. I use Kanban but it is good to re-think the basics sometimes May I ask a question... On your physical - office space boards, what type of sticky notes do you use? They look different to most Post It notes I've seen.
Very good video thank you for that! On small comment, at the end of the video, "lead time" is mentioned to describe the time from taking the work till delivering it to the customer. For me, it is more "cycle time". Lead time would be more the time from customer request to the time where the customer get what he requested.
Love the video. Very clear and well-paced. I do think you should adjust or add onto the concept of lead time and compare and contrast it to cycle time. Maybe that's in the future installments.
With Jira there is a WIP limit per column, other than aligning column WIP limit to the number of people on your team is there a way to apply a WIP limit based on a users in a Role like say Developer?
How is prioritization conducted in Kanban? Does it use similar techniques to Scrum i.e. Planning Poker, MOSCOW, numbering based on team-based perspectives?
@@Atlassian Thanks for your response. My question was more general to understand what prioritization techniques are used for Kanban, and if they are the same as Scrum or different.
Honestly, I watched a lot of videos and this is the best and most classy explanation of Kanban. You did really well! Thank you.
This! Excellent explanation of a concept I’d never heard of one hour ago. It may be the solution to my organization woes
my man knows his stuff!

This is a golden textbook example of how an educational video in general and on Kanban specifically, should be made. Nice work! :)
We're glad it was helpful! 💙
For an absolute novice this was a brilliant explanation. Thank you
totally agree!
This is the best video I found on Kanban.
I have worked in scrum team and was looking to learn what is Kanban. I went through lot of videos with similar information but this video explained it the best. Thank you
The Kanban video series are truly amazing. The way the videos are directed, produced and also the main speaker are just superb!
1:43 (ish) "It's on the team to make kanban work for you" i.e. it's not a magical lantern you rub to make magical things happen. It's a tool that can be used effectively by certain-minded people. Good stuff right there.
This video was amazing and explained in such a simple manner that anyone would be able to grasp the idea.
You are an absolute teacher.... Nice to watch from you, thank you.
As a salesforce trainee, I found your video very descriptive and understandable. Thank you
why is the camera so shaky all the time?
It's a real shame. I had to abort watching due to minor motion sickness. Ruins an otherwise great video.
For an absolute beginner this was an excellent explanation. Thank you
You're most welcome! Good luck on your upcoming projects!
The 3:55 - 4:08 part is a really, really good point.
Thank you for this video!

One of the better videos about Kanban. I actually felt that i learned something, thanks!
Absolutely nailed this whole topic of Kanban boards. Your a natural teacher and I feel myself "Flowing" towards Trello 😁

i agree that it is best way to monitor progress on the project regularly with this kanban review data!
Really good explanation, eager to implement this to my day to day activities
He deserves to be in atlassian - thankyou
This is the best damn video (from the production perspective) I have seen in a long time.
I m working at japan factory kanban is one how to manage our working system and time efficiently ❤
Best explanaition I have found so far!! Awesome!
Just started using Trello and your video series was a great refresher for understanding Kanban. I'd read about it before, but never put it into action. Off to a running start now. Thanks!
I really loved this video mainly because theory was demonstrated with practical examples..thanks..
all the best words re content and how things explained. The shaking camera and running circles around the office to make it more "live" is a bit questionable though.
You always benefit from the simplicity: kanban itself and the way it's presented
Thank you for the information in my organization they introduce the kanban system but I think they never sold it properly now I understand. Thank you
Thank you Jared for the intro
it's uncanny!
Nicely done! Love the creativity in the video
Excellent explanation!! Thank you
Well done Max. Nice and comprehensive. I will use it for my folks

Very clear explanation…great work.
Amazing work, guys (also, amazing offices!!!!)
I’m getting some solid American Airlines preflight video vibes
the best teacher there is
Thank you for simplifying this
Fabulous explanation through visualization!!!
Super clear! Thanks
This is good intro to Kanban boards, it has detailed explanation and examples! I hope publish one for scrum boards as well.
Funny you should mention that, we have a whole series on Scrum as well. :D ua-cam.com/play/PLaD4FvsFdarT0B2yi9byhKWYX1YmrkrpC.html
Thanks for the detailed explanation !! Appreciated !!

May I ask a question... On your physical - office space boards, what type of sticky notes do you use? They look different to most Post It notes I've seen.
great and easy video to understand kanban at first place.
Thank you 😊
Great video !clear and concise
Spectacular content! 🙌
Thanks a lot!
VERY VERY WELL DONE 🎉

This video is very self explanatory. Very straight to the point and easy to understand. Please can you do another video on Scrum?
U can sell icecream to Eskimo i swear, what a presentation for a white board
Great video !!!
Excellent video🔥.
brilliant explanation. thank you so much!
I wish I had watched this video several months ago when I first started to use Trello
This was most helpful
Nice and simple explanation. Thanks a lot
Amazing video
thanks a million..
WIP work in progress limit🤯
Installed Trello. It's pretty good.
Great job!
Indeed very helpful. love you. Thank you Sir.
Great job. Thank you so much.
How can you apply Kanban or other Agile methodology in Real Estate Development
For accessibility, can we have a reduce motion button on this video?
wow! perfect!!!! loved it!!
I'm thinking about starting Kanban Records
What does he mean when he says “now that I have bandwidth I can move on…”
Love the video. Very clear and well-paced. I do think you should adjust or add onto the concept of lead time and compare and contrast it to cycle time. Maybe that's in the future installments.
Ok that's just a team to-do list in another more visual format.
great explanation really thank you
Looks like a building I have been in on 10th Ave in San Diego.
What do you mean by bandwidth? thanks for this video.
you are making of me to remember jared from silicon valley,your voice is so similar to him
Fantastic! I love Atlassian!
wow! you are good in it.
The visual signal I'm getting motion sickness from the vibration of the whole damn video!
With Jira there is a WIP limit per column, other than aligning column WIP limit to the number of people on your team is there a way to apply a WIP limit based on a users in a Role like say Developer?
Lead time - isnt that cycle-time times the length of the backlog? You just said in the video that cycle-time was the same as lead time...
very nice video
Thanks for the great video. Just a small correction for it: “看板” is a Chinese word. " カンバン" is the Japanese word for Kanban.
Also he said it means visual signal, but it's look and board, so I think a simple "sign board" or "card board" is a better translation...
Perfect!!.
Just realised I've been doing a scuffed version of this with several columns of jobs in an word table
How is prioritization conducted in Kanban? Does it use similar techniques to Scrum i.e. Planning Poker, MOSCOW, numbering based on team-based perspectives?
By default Kanban boards sort by Rank. You can learn more about Ranking here: support.atlassian.com/jira-software-cloud/docs/enable-ranking/
@@Atlassian Thanks for your response. My question was more general to understand what prioritization techniques are used for Kanban, and if they are the same as Scrum or different.
All in all, great work.
Only negative, is the camera man. So so shaky...was it an earthquake? :DDDDD xD
Is kanban a job title or what job titles mostly use kanban ?
Good video.
Awesome! Lov it!
Microsoft Teams with Power automate works very well.
Is that Atlassian JIRA org ? Nice office :)
Btw very well explained KANBAN
