Personal Kanban Summary of Key Points
‘Personal Kanban’ is a book that introduces a simple and effective productivity system based on the Kanban method originally developed in Toyota manufacturing. The authors, Jim Benson and Tonianne DeMaria Barry, have adapted this approach for personal and professional task management. The core principle involves visualizing your work on a board with columns for ‘To Do,’ ‘Doing,’ and ‘Done.’ This visibility helps manage workload, prioritize tasks, and achieve a better work-life balance. The book is filled with practical advice, real-world examples, and tips on making the Kanban system work for you.
