Obeya is developing rapidly. In many organizations Obeya’s are popping-up like mushrooms. Usually different types of Obeya’s, in different forms and with different ways of working. This is a clear indication of its success! However, if not managed properly, falling victim to its own success is a real risk. We experience that in these situations questions are being asked, for example how the Obeya’s relate to the organizations governance and management model, how the Obeya’s relate to each other, the wish to connect and consolidate Obeya’s, the need to standardize way of working over Obeya’s etc. We believe that the concept of "Scaling Obeya" can help to face these challenges. We will dive into the concept of scaling Obeya, share with you a prototype of the model we have developed, and would like to test the model together with you.
