Kanban Board

A visual management board that exposes workflow, highlights bottlenecks, and shows how much work is in progress so teams can improve flow.

Key Points

  • Columns represent workflow stages; cards represent individual work items.
  • Work-in-progress (WIP) limits prevent overload and reduce multitasking.
  • Queues, blockers, and bottlenecks become visible to drive continuous improvement.
  • Enables pull-based flow and supports tracking metrics like cycle time and throughput.

Example

A software team uses a Kanban board with columns: Backlog, Ready, In Progress (WIP 3), Code Review (WIP 2), and Done. When work piles up in Code Review, the team temporarily reassigns a developer to reviews, clearing the bottleneck and improving flow.
