You’ve done your research; you know how visualizing your work with Kanban could help your team work smarter, communicate better, and produce higher quality work. But your boss isn’t sold. Unless you can explain why limiting work in process and implementing a pull system is going to boost revenue, they’re not interested. They aren’t convinced...
They were righteous and glorious, organized and well-informed. Their projects were always on time, on budget, and in scope. Soon, their skills spread to their personal lives.

It’s frustrating, but it’s not like this is the only thing taking up a developer’s time. Consider the status reporting, emails, meetings, documentation, and so...
