Add Kanban to your Scrum

You’ve probably heard the term Scrumban before. Some say it’s a method, others treat it like a buzzword. Here’s the truth: there’s no single, fixed recipe called “Scrumban.” But that doesn’t mean you can’t successfully combine the structure of Scrum with the powerful flow management of Kanban. In fact, when you bring them together the right way, you’ll uncover one of the most practical strategies to help your team finish more and stress less.



By the end of this episode, you’ll walk away with a step-by-step playbook to:

👉 Visualize your workflow

👉 Use WIP limits

👉 Actively manage work so your team stops starting, starts finishing

👉 Keep the best parts of Scrum

👉 Measure progress in a way that gives you real predictability



Whether you’re a Scrum Master, a manager, or an Agile coach, this episode will give you practical moves you can try tomorrow to reduce bottlenecks and boost your team’s focus.



So, if you’ve ever looked at your Scrum board and thought, “Why does everything feel stuck?” or wondered if Kanban could make things smoother without throwing Scrum out the window – this guide is for you.
