Introduction to Agile Kanban

What Is Context Switching?

Work­ing on one thing at a time is impor­tant for both phys­i­cal work and knowl­edge work. In knowl­edge work, mul­ti­task­ing results in big loss­es due to the men­tal bur­den of con­text switch­ing. Learn how con­text switch­ing affects knowl­edge work­er pro­duc­tiv­i­ty and how Lean and Agile prac­tices attempt to counter these losses.
