Hey! Loved the article. I am currently employed as a scrum master in a scrum environment. About your proposed "fix" to management: even with the light pairing you recommend, wouldn't kanban eventually cause siloing? Even using scrum at my job, we have individuals becoming the "Feature X" guy or the "Feature Y" guy. This person then essentially disappears into a hole perfecting that one feature for weeks/months, even if there are more pressing/interesting matters. I don't see how kanban wouldn't increase that even more.
Also, how do you estimate? Individual or group? Does everyone on the team possess the skills to estimate every story?
- dangoor 8y agoWhen using kanban, people take the first card from the top of the pile and work on that. There's no siloing in that, because you're taking whatever happens to be at the top. You don't estimate in kanban. You'll generally try to break things down into small stories, but the goal is to always be working on the most important thing and focus on improving how quickly work goes from idea to done.
