A Nimbus Clinics project manager is using 'Little's Law' (Cycle Time = WIP / Throughput) to show the team that their 'Shared Vision' is being compromised by multitasking across 15 different features.
What should the PM recommend?
- Implement a 'WIP Limit' on the Kanban board to force focus on finishing fewer features that directly align with the highest-priority OKR.
- Hide five of the features in a 'Parking Lot' so the WIP appears lower on the stakeholder dashboard.
- Tell the team to work faster (increase Throughput) so the high WIP doesn't affect their Cycle Time.
- Add three more developers to the team so they can handle all 15 features simultaneously without increasing cycle time, without revisiting the agreed prioritization criteria.
