I find Chapter 14 useful in a book of useful chapters. In this chapter, Steve and Daniel explain the foreshadowed idea of full-kitting and introduce two different versions of kanban boards. Have you bought your copy of Steve Tendon and Daniel Doiron’s Tame your Work Flow? Use the link to support the authors and blog!

Next SPaMCAST
The Software Process and Measurement Cast 617 will feature our essay on rediscovering productivity. It begins “I have not worked outside of my home office since mid-April. There are lots of benefits to this change. My commute is really short, I run a lot more, I get to hang out with my wife more, and I have lost 42 pounds. But not everything is unicorns and rainbows — time feels a bit wonky.” Lets unwonkify time!
We will hear from Susan Parente who brings her “Not A Scrumdamentalist” column to the Software Process and Measurement Cast!
