Overview and Roles
Typically in groups of three, participate in hands-on Kata training to gain a deep understanding of how you can experiment your way forward instead of having to decide your way forward.
The Kata in the Classroom exercise (KiC) has participants go through each step of the Improvement Kata pattern in a hands-on activity. Participants work in teams on a number of self-generated iterations to complete a small puzzle. Participants follow the Improvement Kata pattern to (1) face a challenge, (2) measure where they are, (3) establish a next goal and (4) experiment toward that goal in three-minute rounds.
