Most people are unaware of the fact that any complex system is based on inherent simplicity. Capitalizing on the inherent simplicity is what enables incredible improvements within a short time. The few elements that dictate the level of performance of the system, are the constraints of the system - the leverage points of the system. Grab the opportunity to expose yourself to a common-sense way of managing systems... managing according to the system constraints, capitalizing on the inherent simplicity of a system.
Great audiobook. Eventhough the characters start as total idiots, like the question on the video on the word bottleneck: "My what?" JIT was introduced to me in the basic economics lesson at the technical university. Would the plant managers not read the latest scietifical articles or use consultants that do on the 70's? I hope the book would take the concept much futher. And why such a lost plant manager doesn't seek the counsel of another consultant if the one that he happens to meet at the airport is too busy to help. Nice story, but could be more realistic.
The irony of this video is that of the two having the discussion, the one promoting change was the only one who conceded and agreed to consider change at the end (adjusting his approach to how to present the idea of change to others). While the other, who tried to rationalize he did not object to change, never truly conceded on any of the points, thus proving the claims of the other.
Your statement can be easily challenged. Why do people get married, have kids, change jobs, live in a different country ...? They all embrace change and get into much more challenges that they need to solve... quite contrary to what you claim!
As an Indian I can tell you Mother Theresa was pure evil. Used orphans in a poor country to elevate her agenda to be known as an angel. She is very predictable in the extreme but with a cloak
Se fue por qué no soportaba la vida que estaba llevando junto a Alex, no te hago spoiler pero su relación sube y baja, no he visto la película, pero me he leído el libro.
I'm currently reading the book. It seems that Al and all of the managers/heads don't really know what they're producing and why. It reminds me of the movie Back To School with Rodney Dangerfield where he schools the business professor on how business works in the real world. Rodney's character asks the professor what product the fictional plant is manufacturing and the professor says tape recorders. Rodney's character says, "Tape recorders? The Japs will kill us!" Any organization has to start with the fundamental question of what good or service it's providing then ask why it's providing that good or service. Al's company doesn't seem to know why it's in business in the first place.
It's broken down and simplified giving the viewer gather basic understanding of TOC, it's a vast subject with countless other elements and would take time to master, thanks for sharing.
Do you think after the industrial revolution, most capitalist markets have devolved into excess and over production for the sake of profit? This theory of constraint seems to be lost in these saturated times we live in..
Eu fiz um resumo dos conceitos principais da Meta. Está em português, mas talvez vocês consigam entender! ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-lHZHoyvGdS0.html
Where can i see the whole movie??? All i have found is one with Spanish dub in 144p quality.... and i wont be paying 100$ USD to only been able to see the movie once... Even the DVD costs 999$ its crazy!!!!!!!!!!
They have to walk 5 miles. After 2 miles and 100 yards they decide to have Herbie in front. Then they walk some before they take lighten his backpack. And they the last 4 miles went quicker.. I believe that the problem is that Mr. Rogo is bad at math 🤣 Also if three machine produce 10 items per hour on a conveyor belt, the last machine will be idle for 12 minutes before the first produced item of the first machine reaches it. This concept has an issue with basic math.
It would only be idle for 12 minutes once. Not 12 minutes every hour, so the idle time in this situation isn't an issue because if you keep the flow consistent from that point forward then you will be producing reliably every hour.
@@doctormoobbc The production cycle will begin with 1 unit of idle time for the second machine and 2 units for the third machine. The first machine ends the production cycle with 2 units of idle time, the second machine with 1 unit of time. The production cycle will have constant of 6 units of idle time. Identififying the constants is what underpins the reliablity. The idle time of starting and stopping the production will be a constant. And to think that the production will move forward unhindered in perpetuity is a recipe for disaster.
Thank you for sharing your thinking on the matter. Well, you are ignoring reality where variability exists (uneven path, Herbies, etc). Henry Ford resolved (kind of) the variability problem by putting severe limitations: inventing the conveyor belt AND stating that the customer can have any color he wishes as long as it is black.... The Goal Movie gives you a comprehensive understanding of what is needed to maximize throughput where dependency and variability coexist.
@@LearningTOC I never read the section in The Princpiles of Sceintific Management where Frederick Taylor explained how 4+2=5. But hey, please point to the section where he disproves basic math and I will carry the torch for you and him..
Las matemáticas son ciencias exactas. Pero no son las matemáticas qué trabajan con personas ni con máquinas, por eso 2 personas + 2 personas haciendo algo puede ser 3 o 4 o 5 en entrega de resultados o quien sabe.....
Video gives interesting ideas that sound good on paper. However, there is one thing the video fails to recognize. Even if a change is said to be thoroughly beneficial with few obstacles, if the person hurts the other person's ego (ex. doesn't hear the other person's side emphatically), they will resist change. The same principle applies when people argue on the internet, and it seems no one really gives in to the other person. Understand that people are not always logical but are fundamentally emotional creatures.
Another concept shown in the movie: balance flow, not capacity. The rate at which the system performs is the rate at which the constraint is maximized.
