Lean, Kanban, and Scrum are three of the most widely used Agile approaches, each offering unique strengths for improving flow, collaboration, and delivery outcomes. As organizations mature in their Agile journey, many teams move beyond using a single framework and adopt Scrumban—a hybrid approach that combines Scrum’s structure with Kanban’s focus on flow and continuous improvement.

This blog explains the key differences between Lean, Kanban, and Scrum, when each approach works best, and how Scrumban helps teams balance predictability with flexibility. By reducing work in progress, improving visibility, and enabling faster feedback, Scrumban allows teams to adapt to changing priorities without sacrificing delivery discipline. Whether you are scaling Agile or optimizing team performance, understanding how these methods work together is essential for achieving sustainable business agility.
