We decided to write this book while traveling together on a business trip. Returning from a meeting with a supplier whom we wanted to place on kanban scheduling, we were discussing how resistant the supplier had been to the idea. Our discussion migrated to how most companies and individuals were resistant at first, but that they soon came on board once they understood the benefits of using kanban. We discussed how this resistance stemmed from lack of exposure and the lack of books about how actually to develop and implement kanban scheduling. Twenty miles later we were building what became the fourteen-page outline for this book.
