Cross-Board Visibility

A.1.2.1 Cross-Board Visibility

  • Linked Kanban Boards: Establish links between boards for different teams (e.g., development, QA, marketing) to represent dependencies visually. Most Kanban tools allow linking cards across boards, making it easy to track which tasks from one team depend on or impact tasks from other teams.
  • Shared Dependency Columns: Consider adding a “Waiting on Another Team” or “External Dependency” column on each board to capture when a task is blocked by another team’s work. This signals to the broader organization that coordination is required and flags potential issues before they become blockers.
