Description

Jason continues the Lean Onboarding series with finding and removing roadblocks, using a kinked hose to show why pushing harder never beats clearing the bottleneck. He challenges workers, foremen, and superintendents to be problem preventers instead of problem solvers, looking ahead days, weeks, and even months to remove roadblocks before they ever touch the work.

What you'll learn in this episode:

• Why pushing behind a bottleneck never creates more flow
• The difference between creating pressure and creating capacity
• Why we need problem preventers, not heroic problem solvers
• What counts as a roadblock, from RFIs and materials to layout and manpower
• How far ahead of the work roadblocks should be found and removed

How many days ahead of the work are you actually finding your roadblocks?
