This document discusses techniques for improving Kanban workflows. It recommends starting with a basic Kanban board with no technical tasks, prioritizing small stories, and clearly defining acceptance criteria. It also suggests using a red bin for blocked work, multiple columns to focus on different stages, and limiting work-in-progress to improve flow. Measuring cycle time and using cumulative flow diagrams can provide visibility. Establishing multiple workflow lanes with different limits further refines the process.
