2. Define a structure of your plan Bu ck et s
The st andard view of t he board is com posed of different colum ns called Buck e t s. I f your team works on m ultiple proj ects, set up 1 bucket for each proj ect. I f your team works on only 1 proj ect, use buckets to define work packages. I t's best to keep all the work in one plan and not spread it out over m ultiple plans. Using m ult iple plans will m ake it very hard t o keep an overview during your weekly planning. By default a bucket " t o do" is creat ed. Renam e it . Alternatively you can organize the buckets by: proj ect phases, workflow, Kanban stages, business functions, topics.

2. Define a structure of your plan Task
Every bucket is com posed of different Ta sk ca r ds.
Use t hose cards for deliverables and assign t hem t o t heir owners ( one or m ultiple m em bers actively working on this deliv er able) .
You can add as m any t asks as needed. You can organize your tasks as: deliverables, m ilestones, actions etc. Based on experience deliverables works best.
Break down larger deliverables into sm aller ones, so that each deliverable ( and hence card) can be assigned to a single person. I n that case, you m ight want to consider setting up buckets for larger deliverables.
Add start and due dates if can. Based on dates ( start and due date) em ail notifications are send to the assigned m em bers raising for exam ple awareness when a deadline is upcom ing or late.
You can describe t he goal / key result of t he deliverable in t he notes and clearly define what " Done" m eans.
I f possible, break down the deliverable into steps in the checklist ( e.g. research, define content, draft, review)
You can at t ach docum ent s or links t o t he Sharepoint locat ion of your docum ents.
I n Progress you can define what is ongoing or com plet ed. Once t he Progress is put as " Com plet ed" , t he t ask will be archived and no longer visible on the dashboard, which explains why we would not recom m end this field to m onitor p r og r ess.
