Use Kanban Board In 3 Easy Steps

Introduction
  • In a progressing organization, it is important to
    realize the needs and demands of growing work and
    number of employees ahead of time. Any
    organization that fails to meet the upcoming
    needs of the organization fails in project
    completion or faces interruptions and delays.
    Thus, with an advancing organization, it is
    important to adopt Project management apps that
    are capable of turning ambitious ideas into
    achievable plans.

Kanban Board
  • Kanban board is a great project management tool
    that helps users in visualizing their workflow.
    Its an effective workflow method to work through
    projects of any size. The Japanese term Kanban
    translates into visual board, which is an exact
    description of what it does. This project
    management tool based on a simple, but highly
    visual concept is the perfect thing to improve
    your teams productivity.

  • The idea of changing a simple to-do list into a
    highly visual board will have a positive impact
    on your teams work efficiency as they will have
    a better understanding of processes.
  • The Kanban boards enable team members to pull
    tasks from a buildup, and completing work items
    one by one and only as required. Kanban is a
    highly flexible and well-organized method that
    has a Work In Progress tendency.

  • A basic online Kanban board comprises of just
    three columns, or lanes i.e. To Do, Doing, and
    Done. However, users can choose to add more
    columns if needed. To reflect the status of an
    individual task, Team members move a physical
    Kanban card (the one that represents that task or
    work unit) horizontally across the board from
    left to right. Cards are generally marked with
    different colors to indicate priority, assignees,
    or any other information significant to the
    project. Kanban Cards are highly flexible and
    easy-to-move.

How to Use Kanban Boards In 3 Easy Steps
  • The Japanese word Kanban literally means
    "signboard". Using a Kanban board for your
    business can help you break tasks down into
    logical definite steps - referred to as workflow.
  • The typical workflow on a basic Kanban board
    has three categorical steps

8
  • A To-do Column
  • This column represents work to be started. It
    gives you a task to be performed. The first step
    is to understand the task assigned and drag the
    card representing the allotted task horizontally
    to the next column.

9
  • An In-Progress Column
  • This column represents the work that is
    currently being done. The card remains in the
    in-progress column till it is completed and then
    it has to be dragged towards completion.

10
  • A Completed Column
  • This column represents work that has been
    completed. Make sure that you drag the work from
    in-progress section to this column as it will be
    an evidence of task completion.

Summary
  • Kanban Cards are easily movable. In a typical
    Kanban online process, users shouldnt face any
    difficulty in understanding and following the
    workflow requirements, it is as easy as writing
    sticky notes. Completing tasks one-by-one will
    eventually result in project completion without
    any confusion and delays. Kanban boards help to
    monitor work-in-progress and remove delays. It
    improves communication across teams and empowers
    them to self-manage workflows. All these benefits
    are enough to switch to Kanban boards and
    optimize workflows like a Pro.

  • They provide all-inclusive solutions for problems
    like mismanagement of micro-projects,
    miscommunication among team members and
    displacement of tasks and files.
  • Every project involves many other micro-projects
    that lead to its success. Sometimes these
    individual tasks determine the overall success of
    a project, reason why they need proper
    optimization.
