Re:Kanban

I agree with you, but prefer to decouple philosophy from tools. It's just semantics, but in the history of business organization there is a tendency to distill a philosophy down to a few bullet points and believe following those bullet points is all that is needed to be successful. One of the bullet points is usually, "Use XYZ tool." Just putting up a board with cards on it isn't likely going to make your business more successful. It's just a tool. You have to learn how to use it. Sorry if you took my weakness with words as an attack on your efforts to do just that.
