The Best of All Boards: Perpetual, Time-cycle Cadences, or Both

There is an easy way to determine which type of board is best for a given working group.

Ask this question:

Does your working group manage a set of ongoing work items (not date-based)?
If so, use perpetual boards

If your working group uses cadences, such as sprints or monthly/quarterly planning, use cycle-based boards.

If you have teams that use both approaches, take advantage of both types of boards.

Perpetual - Boards (1)

No set dates, used for ongoing work. Work items move through a series of statuses (such as new, in progress and done).
Ideal for backlog management, operations, and non-date-based projects.

Cycle-Driven Boards - Linked to cadences (2)

Subsequent boards are automatically created per cadence time-frame (e.g., weekly, bi-weekly sprints, monthly, etc.)
Ensures alignment with planning cycles.
Supports structured, time-boxed execution.
