How can I use a visualization for a short project?
How We Can See Work in Real Time
The Use of a Control Feature in Personal Kanban
For the Done and the WIP to make sense there needs to be some sort of line, this is a control feature. Every visual control must have an indicator of control. The control feature shows how close we are to completion.
In this case the control feature is the Lean Agile Visual Management Certification class, which was the first one I edited. It started at the top and as more things became DONE, it moved down the screen, as did the green WIP. So in the picture above I'm now working on Personal Prioritization.
And you can see below, while I finish up the last two classes. I see completion as it happens. I get some comfort with my rate of completion and get a good idea based on the flow of the work that I'm doing that I have achieved a predictable productive and effective rate of work through seeing the actual work I am doing.
