Personal Kanban

Yi-Tan Weekly Tech Call #261
Monday, January 4, 2010

Many people use the New Year to set personal resolutions. A common one is getting more things done. (Remember our May 2008 GTD call with David Allen?)

Behold Personal Kanban, a way of seeing your work's shape, cadence and flow, developed by longtime friend Jim Benson. Inspired by kanban/lean/agile methods, PK is tuned to personal productivity (there's a team version we'll tackle later).

To get the most from this call, open Jim's SlideShare presentation. With Jim, let's discuss: 

  • What has publishing the PK site shown you? What's still missing?
  • Where is the emerging PK community taking the concept?
  • What is the role of work in life? What does clarity give us?
  • Where do you think PK might go? What would you like to see happen?

As always, an IRC Chat will be available during the call, here.

We tweet as @yitan. Please follow us, and let's also continue using #yitan. This page is on a wiki, here.
