How does Kanban enable reduced wastage in the Lean development through improved focus?

Answer»

Kanban has the power to TRANSFORM the focus of the TEAM. First and foremost, the work items are arranged in the order of priority. This ENSURES ad-hoc work item assignment is REDUCED and hence, productivity and quality are maintained by reducing context switching. 

Lean UNDERSTANDS that going out of the way to deliver work items are often appreciated by higher management, but it is not sustainable. So, such practices are discouraged.

Instead, a work in progress limit is enforced so that team does not commit more than the capacity and does not pick up additional work items based on personal requests.

Any new work will need to be prioritized keeping in mind the existing work in progress.
