Weekly Update (April 5, 2013)

Notable News

The big news of the week is that we have worked on our production schedule, and are trying to get something new published every day. So far, so good, as we’ve had new content got out each morning. Of course, from the front end, it seems like a small change. From the back end, though, it is the result of significant process improvement activity to open up more time for creating and publishing more content. We hope you enjoy the fruits of our labor.

Thoughts of the Week

  • Technology increases the chance of rude behavior. I got called a fool this week by someone I didn’t even know because I dared disagree with him on a Facebook thread. That has never happened to me in person.
  • Prevention is the best corrective action.
  • Everyone has the same 24 hours in a day to accomplish things, and yet some put the time to far better use than others. If you want to improve your lot in life, count the number of hours of TV you watch in a week, and then put half of those hours toward self-improvement.

Lean Roadmap Update

One of the most common requests from my readers and customers is for information on how to put all the tools, content, and training together. We recently addressed this need with our Continuous Improvement Transformation Model. It is a living document, so we’ll post information about changes to it here. Obviously, the big change in this update is that this page is now available.

New Products

Last, but not least, we want to let you know about new product releases. The first item on the list is a new type of product, our quarterly update pack. This is most useful for Rollout Pack customers who want to keep their training library up to date.
