Kanban Global Summit 2022

About Kanban Global Summit 2022

The Kanban Global Summit, former Lean Kanban North America (LKNA), features world leaders sharing their experiences with the Kanban Method and offering proven techniques. Kanban University has always believed in pragmatic, agile, actionable guidance in our classes, publications, and events. We ask the question, “How can we offer clear guidance that can be applied for immediate improvements?”

KGS22 features keynotes, Wednesday workshops, coaching clinics, social receptions, and learning labs. The Learning Labs focus on a particular topic and provide a great way to learn and get your specific questions answered while connecting to Kanban experts and enthusiasts.

Deep-dive on topics like how to talk about Kanban in your org, enterprise scaling, enterprise agility, coaching with the Kanban Maturity Model, upstream Kanban, improving predictability, and much more.

Should You Also Attend the Kanban Leadership Retreat?

Many attendees of the Kanban Global Summit, former Lean Kanban North America, wonder if they should also attend the Kanban Leadership Retreat. The retreat has much to offer but may not be for everyone. At the same time, it can often be quite valuable to the everyday practitioner. The key to getting value from the retreat is what you bring to it. If you come passively expecting to learn from the retreat then you might get some value, but the real value comes from your participation in the retreat. Be it by proposing a session or just by being an active participant, what you put into the retreat strongly influences what you get out of it.
