This is a must watch! The limitation of Lean and Kanban for software development is very well explained. I think I am going to read Management 3.0!

- Reject all idea which is derived or borrowed for the purpose of managing predictable processes.
- Accept all idea which helps you to deal with unknown and uncertainty.
