Tips

UNPLANNED WORK

Capture any significant ad hoc tasks on the board as you do them and make a note on them that they were unplanned and how long you spent on them (use colours or symbols to differentiate types of task/activity).

This activity will help you gain a realistic view of how you are spending your time and help you to plan more effectively in the future.

LIMIT WORK IN PROGRESS

By limiting the amount of work that can be in progress at one time, this helps to focus attention and ensure that work is completed. It helps to ensure that there are not too many activities being started but not completed.

Often, the reason for non-completion can be linked to delays and hold-ups from other dependent activities, either internal or external. The dashboard can help to ensure that work is well ordered through estimation and ranking internally. External delays are flagged in the waiting area – flagging them as an issue – which helps to free up the doing box, so other work can be actioned while waiting.
