So for this Miro board, I've looked at the best practice of implementing and refining Kanban projects/products and the progression towards a lean organization culture driven through organizational Kanban adoption.
These learnings have been taken from David Anderson's book on Kanban Successful Evolutionary Change for Your Tech Business, which I've summarised in this Miro mindmap.
The board is structured as follows:
What is Kanban?
Kanban in Software Development
Implementing Kanban
Coordination with Kanban Systems
Starting a Kanban Change Initiative
Tips for Getting Started
Delivery Frameworks in Practice at Boohoo
Conclusions
Read each of the mindmaps clockwise to delve into mine and the writer's thoughts.

Change Control Process Template
Works best for:
Agile Methodology, Documentation, Product Management
You can predict, research, and plan for every detail of a project to go a certain way—then along comes the unforeseen and modifications are needed. That’s when a change control process comes into play. It helps define the right steps to take, gives stakeholders full visibility, and reduces the chances of errors and disruption. And this template is easy to use and highly effective—for ensuring that proposed changes are reviewed before they’re implemented, and empowering teams to veto changes that might prove unnecessary or disruptive.
Agile Board Template
Works best for:
Agile Methodology, Meetings, Agile Workflows
Part of the popular Agile framework, an Agile Board is a visual display that allows you to sync on tasks throughout a production cycle. The Agile Board is typically used in the context of Agile development methods like Kanban and Scrum, but anyone can adopt the tool. Used by software developers and project managers, the Agile Board helps manage workload in a flexible, transparent and iterative way. The Agile template provides an easy way to get started with a premade layout of sticky notes customizable for your tasks and team.
Funding Tracker Template
Works best for:
Kanban Boards, Operations
For many organizations, especially non-profits, funding is their lifeblood—and meeting fundraising goals is a crucial part of carrying out their mission. A funding tracker gives them a powerful, easy-to-use tool for measuring their progress and staying on course. And beyond helping you visualize milestones, this template will give you an effective way to inspire the public to donate, and help you keep track of those donors. It’s especially useful when you have multiple donations coming from a variety of sources.
ICOR® Workflows
Works best for:
Flowcharts, Diagrams, Mapping
The ICOR® Workflows template offers a visual framework for documenting and optimizing business processes according to the ICOR® (Input, Control, Output, Resources) methodology. It provides elements for defining process inputs, controls, outputs, and resource requirements. This template enables organizations to streamline operations, enhance quality management, and achieve process excellence. By promoting systematic process documentation and analysis, the ICOR® Workflows template empowers organizations to optimize efficiency, minimize risks, and deliver value to stakeholders effectively.
Scrum Task Tracker (with CSV export)
Works best for:
Kanban Boards, Agile Methodology, Agile Workflows
Scrum Task Tracker template combines Kanban and Scrum methodologies to enhance project management and tracking. With features like CSV export, teams can capture and analyze task data for insights into performance and improvement areas. This template fosters transparency and accountability, enabling teams to track sprint progress, identify blockers, and adapt their approach to maximize efficiency and deliver value consistently.
Monthly Planner Template
Works best for:
Operations, Strategic Planning, Project Planning
To knock out every task and accomplish every goal for the month, it helps to take a big picture, 10,000 foot view of things—meaning a 30-day view. That’s why a monthly calendar can come in so handy, especially on bigger projects. Use our template to create a visual representation that helps you track and space out every deadline and to-do, both for individuals and full teams. You’ll even be able to customize it your way, with images, video, and sticky notes.
