Development is not a deterministic process

The output of development is reusable knowledge:


How to satisfy customers

And Some Needs are Better Left Un-Served


News in Brief

Fork Manufacturer Introduces Fifth Tine To


Accommodate Growing American Mouthfuls
February 17, 2010 | ISSUE 4607
EVANSVILLE, INIn an effort to keep pace with the rapid growth of American mouthfuls, flatware
manufacturer KitchenMaster announced yesterday the addition of a fifth tine to its line of dinner
forks. "These days, a traditional four-tined fork is just not enough to handle the quantities of food
people shove down their throats," said company spokesman Ken Krimstein, holding up a fork
supporting six separate tortellini, two turkey sausages, and some mashed potatoes. "To stay
relevant to our customer base and bring back some of those who have given up on using utensils
entirely, this was an adjustment we just had to make." Krimstein added that the augmented forks

25 percent deeper spoons and


3-gallon gravy boats.

Pulling It All Together


Organically grow your own lean product development process:
1. Do not copy Toyota or Apple! (but you can learn from them)
2. What are your business needs? What problems do you need to solve?
3. Current state: What works well? Problems & gaps?

What are the real root causes? (not the symptoms)

4. Future state vision: What / Who / How / When? Quality measurements?

5. Implementation plan:
When does the business need it completed?
Does the organization have enough capacity?
What are reasonable chunks to work on?
What simple experiments will test your future state vision (hypotheses)?
Plan Do Check Adjust
Honest reflection and improvement

your own desired pace of improvement without us.

We support you with organizational problem analysis, training combined with pilot
projects, and management coaching.
Our work is custom tailored to your specific needs. We work closely with you to jointly
uncover gaps, create solutions, and implement rather than forcing our own set of favorite
solutions.

best implement what we teach.
