About this audiobook
Xanpan is… a cross between XP and Kanban… is an example of a roll-your-own method… is distilled from Allan Kelly’s own experiences running development teams and then helping multiple teams adopt Agile working methods and practices. Xanpan draws ideas from Kanban and Lean, XP and Scrum, product management and business analysis, and many other places.
Allan tells the Xanpan story through a series of boards which tell the story of different teams. In between he fills in the principles, practices and thinking which together constitutes Xanpan. Allan's key points include: handling planned and unplanned work in fixed length iterations, the importance of keeping quality high with technical practices, planning beyond the iteration and why deadlines are more important than estimates.
"Allan Kelly's Xanpan is now required reading for our team" Dom Davis, Head of IT, Virgin Wines.
"A well written and insightful reference material, packs a punch throughout!!!" Sunish Chabba
"If you're doing agile, lean, Kanban, xp a mix of any or just starting read it" Kev McCabe
"This book, very concise, is a goldmine. In a very accurate way, it will guide you through the implementation of the best from Kanban and Scrum." Umiastowski Nicolas
"This book is an important contribution to the agile literature. It tackles the challenges that most teams face, head-on, by proposing alternatives that some might consider heretical. This sort of discussion is invaluable in the face of corporate certification of activities that promote blind faith and dogma rather than observation and critical thought." Seb Rose
"An excellent book giving real examples and experiences of the adoption of lean and Kanban models within software development teams." Belinda Waldock
"Thoroughly enjoyed XanPan. Allan challenges unfounded assumptions and really unearths a simplicity to writing about Agile and effective ways of working." Amazon Reviewer
