A STUDY ON KANBAN METHODOLOGY: INFLUENCE ON WORKFLOW MANAGEMENT, AND IMPACT ON TEAM DYNAMICS

Abstract

This study investigates the Kanban approach, specifically its impact on workflow management and team relations. Kanban, which was originally intended for manufacturing, is now widely used in software development, project management, and the service industry. This study seeks to provide a comprehensive understanding of Kanban by assessing the methodology's impact on workflow management, team relations, and overall project success. Key findings include the methodology's improved workflow visibility and task management, as well as increased team productivity and collaboration, challenges in implementing Kanban in traditional or complex environments, issues with defining and maintaining effective work in progress limits, and a comparison of Kanban to SCRUM and Lean.
