Flow data

Everyday that a card is on the board the team place a sticky dot on it. The number represents column on the board the card was in and the colour represents how much time was spent working on it. If the dot is green then there was 4+

hours spent on it, if it is yellow then circa 2 hours was spent on and if it is red no time was spent progressing it. This helps us understand flow efficiency (the amount of actual time we spend working on something from the time we commit to it till it’s done). It also lets us see at a glance how well work is

progressing.
