Visualizing cycles in Kanban

 

At a training session in Kitchener Waterloo, Canada. I was asked how to visualize and handle cycles in a Kanban board. The images below show a way to do it as a physical board and on an electronic board.

Note that columns inside the cycle can contain their own Done columns.
