Time Management
Time management involves managing how you spend time on activities, in order to maximize personal efficiency.
The Pygmalion Effect
The Pygmalion effect is a self-fulfilling prophecy in which people that are perceived as smarter or higher performers, and given higher expectations of performance, are able to achieve higher levels of success.
Continuous Learning
Continuous personal and professional development has been necessitated by many of life’s changes―the cost of formal education, job obsolescence, career change, lack of time to go to a regular school, and other competing interests.
Constraint Management
No matter what the industry or organization, they all operate with at least one constraint that limits the throughput of the entire organization. With this constraint, working to improve the process in areas other than the constraint will not be as effective in improving the overall process as focusing efforts on the constraint.
Mistake Proofing
Mistake proofing devices are typically simple and inexpensive, but the benefits of the mistake proofing can be invaluable to the organization, process, process owner, and to the end user.
Standardization and 5S
In the context of process improvement, standardization is necessary to consistently deliver high quality process output and sustain the gains made through process improvement efforts.
