Just Enough
The concept of having just enough info, data, ideas, etc. to get started or move ahead on a
particular task, instead of waiting for everything before starting. This can be a powerful tool
to avoid “spinning.”
Kanban
A method for visually managing and scheduling work or tasks. This approach presents all
participants with a full view of work that has not started, what is in process and what has
been completed.
Essential

+ Additional categories (i.e. Backlog, Next/Staging, Review, etc.) can be included
at the team’s discretion

and keep progress continuous
+ Manage flow in order to allow and prepare for changes that will occur within the
