What is the problem...
Never enought time
Always more to do
Something urgent comes up
Missed opportunities
Work to do, bills to pay, kids to feed...
Window of opportunity for getting stuff done is limited

Activities that get things done effectively

How did I build my Kanban
● Started simple with: Plan – Do – Done Used scrap of paper for initial design Built a simple board and started using it
● Evolved into Plan – Do – Check – Act Evaluated deficits in board and enhanced
● Used online Kanban So I dont need to cary a large whiteboard around Useful for distributed teams

Is something ready to work on?
● Identify completed work between seperate board lanes
● Spilt the study board lane into two First new lane is doing state Second lane is done / ready

Quick decisions
Having a ready lane show you what you could work on next
Prompts discussion as when something is ready to move from one stage / role to another
Start to see if there is a bottleneck if cards queue up in the ready column

So What is missing ?
● I have a Kanban board● I am breaking my tasks down into relatively
small chunks
● But I still have far too much to do...
![Page 25: Just-in-time development with kanban - JAX London 2011](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022052618/54c7a4344a795973668b45a0/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)

Lets apply the WIP !!!
● To sudy effectively I need to focus● To focus I need to work on 1 thing
at once● To work on 1 thing at once I need:
Work In Progress Limits

How to decide what is right
Experiment !!
Map to resources

Fast feedback across the board
![Page 30: Just-in-time development with kanban - JAX London 2011](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022052618/54c7a4344a795973668b45a0/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)

Fast feedback
● Ltd WIP on Columns Board Goals
● Ltd WIP in column gives fast feeback between team roles
They know when there is a hold up Can discuss what the problem is Can try out things to see if it alivates the problem
![Page 31: Just-in-time development with kanban - JAX London 2011](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022052618/54c7a4344a795973668b45a0/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)

Predictability
● Ltd WIP● Smaller batch sizes● Consistently sized tasks
Breaking down features, epics, stories
● Smallest responsible change
![Page 32: Just-in-time development with kanban - JAX London 2011](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022052618/54c7a4344a795973668b45a0/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)

Let kanban help you be effective
● Work on only on one thing at once● Everyone responsible for priority changes
Even your manager
● If forced to switch, record and reset task to begining
Review ”task switching” overload

What else can we do ?

Drop the Backlog
omnipresent sign of overload Useful for pushing back to the
management Bad for team moral
Tasks flow when team is in tune with value, opportunities are not drowned out
![Page 36: Just-in-time development with kanban - JAX London 2011](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022052618/54c7a4344a795973668b45a0/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)

Defining the task card
● Set goal of task● Identify measure to check if goal reached
Code should pass all tests
● Identify resources needed to compete● Identify scope of work
refactor task into multiple cards if too big

Experditing
● Visualisation for a high priority task Big red sticker Experditing lane Record other tasks being blocked
● Review why you get high priority task Consider it a constraint / bottleneck
