What does a Kanban board demonstrate?

A Kanban board is a visual tool that helps teams manage the flow of work from start to finish. It shows the steps of the team’s workflow, the work items in each step, and the work-in-process (WIP) limits for each step1. A Kanban board demonstrates where a team has too much work-in-process (WIP), which is the number of work items that are being worked on at any given time. Having too much WIP can cause delays, bottlenecks, and waste in the value stream2. By using a Kanban board, teams can identify and resolve the sources of excessive WIP, and optimize their flow and throughput3.
