Run your first sprint

This walks through one full sprint loop on the board.

Steps

Open the board. Go to your project's board. Its columns come from the project template — the underlying flow is To Do → In Progress → In Review → Done, with Blocked shown in the open lane.
Create a sprint. From the board, create a sprint and set its window (for example, two weeks). See Sprints & milestones.
Fill the sprint. Add the tasks you're committing to. Want a head start? Ask the Associate to "plan this sprint from what's overdue and who has capacity" and approve what it proposes.
Assign and prioritise. Give each task an assignee and a priority — higher-priority cards sort to the top of each column, and pinned cards stay on top.
Work the board. As work progresses, drag cards between columns to update their status. Blocked something? Mark it blocked — it stays visible with a "stuck" cue so the team can help.
Keep in sync. Post a quick standup in the project's Feed or a thread, and check the Daily Brief on your dashboard each morning. Track effort as you go with time tracking.
Close it out. At the end of the window, wrap the sprint and ask the Associate for a quick wrap-up or productivity insights to feed your retro.

Let the actuals improve the next one

Compare your time estimates against what work actually took. That gap is the single best input to a sharper next sprint.
