			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Visual Management is one of those things that feels obvious, but isn&#8217;t. The idea is that you manage projects, tasks, and other bits of work-in-progress using something visual (ie, not digital). It&#8217;s a chart on the wall that everyone can see, that everyone can modify, and is updated regularly.</p>
<p>There was a <a href="http://agile2009.com/node/1898">workshop</a> specifically for Visual Management at Agile 2009 and a subsequent <a href="http://www.xqa.com.ar/visualmanagement/2009/09/visual-management-workshop-at-agile-2009/">write-up</a> on the presenter&#8217;s <a href="http://www.xqa.com.ar/visualmanagement/">Visual Management Blog</a>. But don&#8217;t be fooled &#8211; while this may be gaining traction in more technical areas, this will work for anyone&#8217;s project. There are lots of great pictures of examples and is worth your time to browse the pictures even if you don&#8217;t read the whole post. I&#8217;d suggest starting <a href="http://www.xqa.com.ar/visualmanagement/2009/09/visual-management-workshop-at-agile-2009/">here</a>.</p>
<p>I&#8217;m amazed at how well a non-technical solution can communicate to everyone on (or off) the team.</p>
