Work-in-progress (WIP) limits in a Kanban Board is a strategy used in the Kanban methodology to ensure that a team does not overcommit to work. It sets a maximum amount of work that can be in the 'in-progress' phase at any given time. The purpose of this is to prevent overproduction and maintain a smooth flow of work. When a WIP limit is reached, the team focuses on completing the work in progress before starting new work.
