elevation through elegance to innovation?.Pages

All Lean guys mean the objective of all operations should be green. So far green was recognised as a colour. Hitherto it has become a philosophy. Like look at elegant, which implies being graceful in appearance and behaviour. On the other hand Toyota’s working definition believes: “An elegant solution is one in which the optimal outcome is achieved with the minimal expenditure of effort and expense.”

An elegant solution should cater for Quality. First time every time, RIGHT
DIRFT is the Philip Crosby’s mantra.
Thareja modified it to DINRFT ( Do it now right First time).

It ain’t come without innovation.

Blogger Guy Kawasaki asks: What links elegance to innovation?

Simple is better. Elegant is better still (…) if it combines with innovation,
Great innovation requires understanding and appreciation
the concept of elegance as it relates to sophistication
solving important problems, with Quality tools and synergisation.

Toyota too practices for creativity: The 10 codes are:

1. Let Learning Lead
2. Learn to See
3. Design for Today
4. Think in Pictures
5. Capture the Intangible
6. Leverage the Limits
7. Master the Tension
8. Run the Numbers
9. Make Kaizen Mandatory
10. Keep it Lean

Innovation, like from the Toyota’s back benches,
to elegance, is well said and is full of meaning;

That Elegance, as I define is: Beauty with Brains,
albeit with fulfilment of all Functions and Aims,
befalling, along with Safety and allied constraints,
is however not inhibited in any ( of the ten) domains.

nevertheless, learning is – until the soul it touches!

always aim higher.Pages

Challenges come and they are won!
But that’s never the end of Journey.
God always test those who wanna demonstrate the endurance. For example, those who are truthful, are pressed into tiring moments, every moment prompting one to escape one’s skin through a lie, The problem will only come whwn it were most dreaded ( Yeah! This is Murphy’s law)

The power of Poetry.Pages

When things become complex the process of comprehending them demands more labour. One of the avenues to simplification of strong text is make it more illustrative. Poetry makes this possible. It also facilites enhancing the meaning of documented words and increases the domain the verse normally encompasses.

The endeavour is to compile different poems I have written relating to management.

Shira Wolosky says that “Poetry is language that always means more.” Her book The Art of Poetry: How to Read a Poem (New York: Oxford University Press, 2001), 3, ). She writes:
“Poetry is, then, learning the functions of each word within its specific placement in the poem: why each particular word is put into each particular position. Why that word? What is it doing there? How does it fit into the poem, and into what the poem is doing? In poetry there are multiple reasons for choosing and placing words. There is not one single pattern in a poem, but rather a multiplicity of patterns, all of which ideally interlock in wider and larger designs. There are in fact many designs on many levels, where each meaningful word and element points to the next one, in an endless process of imaginative possibility. These intricate patternings of poetry are what generate the essential nature of poetry: its intense figurative power, to always point beyond one meaning or possibility to further ones. This book will identify and explore these figural possibilities and their patterns. It will work from smaller to larger units of organization until the poem stands complete, a building you can enter (and note: stanza means “room” in Italian) and understand in terms of the architecture of its diverse parts, as each contributes to the whole.”

Principally what Poetry can do: Consider the following example;
Why be a teacher?

If you believe it is important to help children and young men and women
acquire the knowledge, skills, and dispositions
essential to productive and satisfying lives,
then consider being a teacher.
