Traditional management vets candidates by what happened in the past instead of what they’re capable of, and loses the talent they have available to be deployed.
Progressive management identifies untapped talent and cultivates it.
A lean view on… the fight against Climate Change

my notes/key points:
“The difficulty is compounded by the fact that most senior management are not looking for real, radical change. Most of the time, sadly but unsurprisingly, they’re seeking confirmation:
"tell me that what I’m doing is already lean.”
Leaders discover the way, others play catch-up, the world moves forward.
What lean really has to offer is not off-the-shelf pre-packaged solutions. Loving the package more than what is inside is the drama of the current zeitgeist.”
David Belson's Letter to WSJ
David Belson’s letter to the Wall Street Journal in response to last week’s front page article about hospitals cutting costs and laying off staff. WSJ erroneously stated that efficiency caused a lack of being prepared for an emergency such as Covid-19. Noting how misleading this is, David wrote the WSJ.
They published his letter on Monday, shown here:
Applying Operational Excellence to Mining
"Balancing the workload among different production lines led to a 19.3% increase in productivity
(we did invest some money in modernizing our equipment and improving processes)."
The management team of a Lithuanian mining company explains how they are transforming themselves to overcome resistance to business change.
- machine efficiency rate went up 20%.
Main mobile equipment used to shut down for planned maintenance every 150 hours, whereas today it does only every 250.
