The Kanban for Knowledge Work Alliance is an alliance of thought leaders from Kanban, Lean, Lean Thinking, Systems Thinking, Agile and Agile Thinking. The intent is to continue being thought leaders, to keep up with the state of the art on Kanban and to develop an enterprise grade learning and certification roadmap.

We are professionals with a Systems Thinking perspective of Kanban, Lean and Agile in the context of the markets in which they are applied, their impact at human-factor level and their influence on the benefits the products and services developed. By Systems Thinking we mean a mindset based on understanding the interrelationships between all the aspects of what’s of interest and how they impact each other, so that with such level of understanding we are more capable of figuring out better solutions and outcomes that benefit all the parts involved. Systems thinking does not refer to software systems or so, but a software system may be one component of a System. Our mission is to help others also become systems thinkers in Kanban so that their organizations, the people who belong to it, and its customers are highly benefited, and as result become more successful.
