Board: what stage is the work in?
Use Board when the team needs to see flow. For example, a campaign team can scan work that is planned, being made, waiting for review or finished. A crowded review stage signals a handoff to resolve.
List: what needs attention next?
Use List when you need to scan many tasks quickly. A project lead can review owners, priorities and dates together, then open the items that need a decision.
Calendar: when is work due?
Use Calendar to catch date collisions. If two deliverables depend on the same reviewer on Thursday, raise that conflict before Thursday arrives.
Timeline: how does the plan unfold?
Use Timeline to discuss sequence and overlap over a longer period. It is useful when one team’s next step depends on another team’s completion.
Keep one source of truth
Switching views should change your perspective, not create another copy of the project. Pick the view that makes the next decision easiest, then return to the task details for the full context.
