If you understand what Kanban is you will have the answer. Kanban is simple to use for anything you do in your daily life.

Yes, I know it, but I think I can use Kanban for all the activities scheduled, similar like scrum.

I agree with Mr. Conte. To be able to use any methodology effectively and determine which is the best methodology to use, you must have a good grasp and understanding of its principles.

Kindly check the the link to the blog that would help you compare the two methodologies: scrum vs. kanban.

Yes. Kanban is a collection of practices to make your process visible and gives you signal to limit work in progress.
It shows what you are doing right now, and shows areas to improve as you learn about the system.
We have Free Online Program on Kanban which can be good starting point for knowing Kanban.

Kanban additionally pulls motivation from the supermarket demonstrate: for greatest proficiency, convey sufficiently only on your racks to take care of clients demand. Along these lines, in Kanban, rather than furrowing ahead on delivery a total venture, you can leave assignments for cheap essay writing services at different stages until the point that they're required—regardless of whether that is half-made, low-request parts in a production line, un-altered blog entries in your line without a distribute date, or whatever else that is sitting tight for a need in your work process.

Not only CAN you use Kanban you SHOULD use Kanban. Even if you don't get fully into Just-In-Time delivery or WIP limits there are some things that you can use.

1) Information Radiator - A kanban board will immediately make your process visible to all. You'll immediately see bottlenecks and other things you haven't seen before. (ex. If this issue is truly critical, why has it been in this step in the process for 90 days?)

2) The physical act of moving things to done! Your team will be able to quickly pivot to an agile mindset of prioritizing work and getting more done instead of getting more started.

As people have already mentioned you need to really understand every and any methodology you plan to use.

For learning Kanban I recommend that you read a good book. There are several good books on Kanban. My favourite is "Kanban in 30 days" http://shop.oreilly.com/product/9781783000906.do . (No I am not the author, and we are not family. We just happen to have very similar names.)

Kanban is really a process improvement scheme, that can be applied on top of any process you already have (be it Waterfall project, Scrum, XP or operations/business-as-usual.)

Surely you can use Kanban in your projects. Kanban can be used in any knowledge work setting, and is particularly applicable in situations where work arrives in an unpredictable fashion and/or when you want to deploy work as soon as it is ready, rather than waiting for other work items.
