Has anyone written about the idea of applying the Kanban philosophy more broadly than just a production line?
On a Toyota Production System kick right now and the general idea of Kanban (a tool to minimize waste) seems very generally applicable.

However, trying to think about how it would apply a layer of abstraction above just a production line.
Like, say you have three priorities in a biz: design a new onboarding system, revamp a website, Hire a marketing person.

I understand how to use Kanban inside each of those products to get them done most efficiently, but how to allocate resources across those products most efficiently? 🤔
Generally I just use a stack ranking system and the goal is everyone works on the first thing if they are the bottleneck there, if not they go to the 2nd, and so on.
I think this works pretty well, but curious about other approaches (or ways to visually show this)
