Scrum Task Board Template

October 19th, 2008 . by Meg

Even when working under the ‘Waterfall’ methodology, I always make it a point to keep a ‘task board’ at my desk or nearby. It’s something I borrowed from Scrum but it works so well for my own personal workload.  Usually it’s just a bunch of index cards and maybe a stark black and white printout of headings for one of three or four columns…not started, currently working on and finished. But about 8 months ago, I got fancy and created my own task headings/cards in Illustrator.

Since a lot of people who have seen the cards have asked for copies of the files, I decided to post the template here. It’s got a loose color-code schema (I could easily see the red for ‘to-do’ instead of ‘done’) and there are separate headings as well as a handful of usefully named cards. And if you’re an Illustrator afficianado then you can edit them and use them as you wish.

Have fun! Work is hard, but the details should always be fun…Mouseover
