Delight

Great products do not come from simply listening to what customers ask for, but from developing a deep understanding of the customer’s world, discovering unmet needs, and surprising customers by catering to these needs. This is the way to create delighted customers.

Plans vs Planning

“In preparing for battle I have always found that plans are useless, but planning is indispensable.” - Dwight Eisenhower

“Plans change very easily. Worldly affairs do not always go according to plan and orders have to change rapidly in response to change in circumstances. If one sticks to the idea that once set, a plan should not be changed, a business cannot exist for long.It is said that the sturdier the human spine, the more easily it bends. This elasticity is important. If something goes wrong and the backbone is placed in a cast, this vital area gets stiff and stops functioning. Sticking to a plan once it is set up is like putting the human body in a cast. It is not healthy.” - Taiichi Ohno

Lean Principles: The Balance Point

* Eliminate waste does not mean throw away all documentation.

* Amplify learning does not mean keep on changing your mind.

* Decide as late as possible does not mean procrastinate.

* Deliver as fast as possible does not mean rush and do sloppy work.

* Empower the team does not mean abandon leadership.

* Build integrity in does not mean big, upfront design.

* See the whole does not mean ignore the details.

-Senge, The Fifth Discipline
