In a previous blog post sharing positive TPS wisdom from Yoda, we know that TPS (at times) seems to contradict many “traditional” operations management practices: less inventory is better, exposing problems (and the “pain” that goes along with them) is the goal, being uncomfortable is desirable, overall system efficiency is better, the process is as important (or maybe even more important) as the result; however, simple, manual systems may be better than complicated & technical systems and processes.
As we improve as leaders, a great example of how NOT to build an organization is found in the leadership style of Darth Vader.
