The element you try to locate is part of the KanbanView.Group template which is rendered in the kanban column.

You need to inherit that template to add an element just after the title.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<templates>
    <t t-inherit="web.KanbanView.Group" t-inherit-mode="primary">
        <xpath expr="//div[hasclass('o_kanban_header_title')]" position="after">
           
        </xpath>
    </t>
</templates>

You can check the kanban column js file to see the available variables defined in the column widget. Records are grouped in each column and available in the data_records object (widget.data_records).
You will need to select a record before you try to access the field value.
