When was the last time you pushed on a rope? Doesn't really make sense, right? Instead we immediately think "no, we should pull on a rope". Yet in many organizations our processes are designed to operate in a push manner. Once work is done it is pushed to the next operation, whether it is needed there or not. And much like trying to push on a rope, this manner of operating isn't a very effective way to get the outcomes we need to meet our customers' requirements.


Pushing material and information through processes results in lots of problems and non-value added activities. Sometimes there is too much materials and information, sometimes there is too little. And frequently, what is pushed is not even needed at all! Working this way can also have a negative impact on quality, cost, space, inventory and the ability to meet customer delivery dates.


This DVD is the first in a series of two; Read about Pulling Together 2 Learning to Connect & Synchronize here. You can purchase the two videos at a reduced price as a package deal here. ​
