Kanban is not a new, fancy software system promising to bring you big results with complicated algorithms. It is not a complicated process with time-intensive meetings and costly activities. Kanban is a simple process developed in the early 1900s and re-defined in the 1950s when Toyota took notice. Since then it has taken the world by storm, only to take a few blows to the chin when some organizations struggled to make it work. It is true; not all industries or businesses thrive using Kanban, but maybe it is not always Kanban's fault. After all, implementing a seemingly straightforward process is not always straightforward.
