Value-Stream Mapping

Maximizing the flow of value requires the understanding of how value is realized in the organization, and how the work flows through it in order to deliver it. This is exactly what value-stream mapping helps to visualize. It is also a great way for anyone wanting to implement Kanban, or Scrum with Kanban.

This workshop is designed to help you identify and analyze the flow of materials and information required to bring a product or service to a customer. Delivered directly to clients, either in person or virtually, our workshop is facilitated by an experienced trainer with a deep understanding of agile and product development.

During this workshop, you’ll learn the key principles and techniques for creating a value stream map, including how to identify value-adding activities, reduce waste, and improve the flow of value to your customers. Our experienced trainer will guide you through the process, providing insights and feedback to help you develop a value stream map that drives your business forward.

Whether you’re new to value stream mapping or an experienced practitioner, our full-day workshop is the perfect opportunity to enhance your skills and improve your business processes. Contact us today to learn more!

Bartosz Rakowski Contract Product Manager // Agile Coach

I can wholeheartedly recommend Oscar as a knowledgeable, experienced coach and facilitator. He does not hesitate and share both in easy to understand and thoughtful way. I always felt there is no wrong topics to discuss with Oscar, and every collaboration with him yielded positive outcomes. His pragmatic, honest, and systemic stance to coaching leaders is nicely supplemented with his top-tier, trainer-level understanding of Scrum and Kanban, which makes him a highly valuable and impactful coach when applied to any part of the organization. I'd gladly accept any opportunity to work with Oscar in the future.

Oscar successfully and empirically applied Scrum in fields we had never touched before like very high stakes R&D and new product development and deployment with very challenging stakeholders and project demands He is a gifted and pragmatic trainer and facilitator who is confident and effective in working with executives to front line. A good man to have by your side. One of the handful of senior trainers who I'd hire in a heartbeat.

I have had the pleasure and good fortune to have been able to work Oscar a lot over the last 6 months. As a co-facilitator he's great to work with because he's not only thorough, knowledgeable but he also exudes calmness in the face of any challenge. I've seen and trained and taught alongside Oscar and quite simply he's a real talent. He makes it look easy. My training and teaching style is now heavily influenced by Oscar, I'm beyond thankful to have been able to develop this area of my career thanks to his support and coaching. Working alongside Oscar has been a real privilege and I hope to be able to do so in the future. He is, without doubt is an asset to any organisation that engages him.

In my brief time managing Oscar I was most impressed by his ability to speak to anyone in the organisation and simply explain the principles behind Lean and Agile in language that made sense to them, whatever their background. His calm and friendly demeanour made him popular with the teams and managers alike and we would have him back anytime.
