8 - Strategy
from Part II - Application
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 05 April 2012
Summary
Although I have devoted a chapter to “vision,” most of the cases we have discussed to date involve improvements that are typically labeled “tactics.” They have not involved spending huge amounts of money nor have they taken a significant amount of time to implement. In this chapter, we dismiss any such constraints and address the more strategic decisions that face companies. Again, we will see that when productivity issues surface, the concept of swift, even flow can point to the way forward.
CAMERAS, COUNTERS, AND CHAOS
The first case, although dating from the mid-1970s, is a classic that remains as applicable today as when it was first written.
