Sketch the sequence
Draw the steps as shapes in a diagram and label them. Walk through the sequence with the team before you assign the work.
Visual planning
Two deadlines. The same Thursday.
Both dates looked reasonable until you saw them together. Plot the work in GGyess’s Gantt view, find the overlap and move a task before you promise a date the team can’t make.
Step by step
Map the stages and check their timing
Sketch the stages, including where the work passes from one person to another.
Create a task for each agreed deliverable with a start and due date.
Check for overlapping dates in Gantt, then open Kanban to see which stage each task has reached.
Visual planning
In day-to-day work
See where work is waiting
Each Kanban column groups work at the same stage. If several tasks are waiting for review, you can see them together.
Check before you promise a date
Gantt lays out activities along a timeline. Look for overlapping dates before you promise the team another delivery.
Before you start
A few good questions.
Which view should we use in a planning meeting?
Start with a diagram to agree on the sequence. Use Gantt for timing and Kanban to review the work currently in each stage.
What information makes the timeline useful?
Meaningful start and due dates give each activity a time span that you can compare with nearby work.
