The High-Velocity Edge: Part Four
Part four of a ten-part series on the 2009 book The High-Velocity Edge by Steven Spear. This episode introduces the two pillars of the first capability: design systems to reveal problems. The first pillar is Taiichi Ohno's "kanban", or pull-based, philosophy on system design. The second pillar is Sakichi Toyoda's "jidoka", or self-regulation, philosophy to identify problems when they happen.
