Presentation - Kanban Case Study

Here are slides on a Kanban Case Study that I presented at agileLUNCHBOX today.  I basically recapped my experience using Kanban at Hugsmiðjan (maker of Eplica CMS), and showed how our Kanban board evolved over time.  I went over basic Kanban theory and covered a few advanced topics like associated metrics.  I also talked about how we integrated Kanban and Scrum.  The talk was well received and afterwards we had some good agile discussions.  

Agile netið Founded

This week I took part in founding the Agile Network (Agile netið), a consortium of agile minded Icelandic companies, one of which is Hugsmiðjan, my current employer. The purpose of the non-profit organization is to advocate Agile and Lean development practices and sponsor agile lectures and conferences in Iceland. The founding partners are 10 companies that have been doing agile for awhile and are interested in sharing their experiences and learning from each other. At the founding meeting we elected a 3 person board for the organization, of which I got elected secretary :-) Hopefully it wont be too much work :) I am very excited to be part of this process and hope to learn a lot from my fellow members. The website for the organization is www.agilenetid.is. No English version yet, but we are working on it. Then there is a Facebook group for those interested in keeping up with what were are doing. Fans wanted :)
