  4. ‘Latent’ Capacity What significance would there be to exposing 15~25% capacity within any manufacturing operation? What effect on…. backlogs? deliveries? Sales Department with shorter deliveries? Cash flow? Prices that could be charged? The immediate need for capital equipment? Would they have any reason to lose any orders based on price or delivery? Reputation in the marketplace?

  5. Accountability Alone we can do so little; together we can do so much -Helen Keller An attitude of accountability lives at the heart of any effort to improve quality, satisfy customers, empower people, build team, create new product, maximize effectiveness and get results. –The Oz principle

  6. A Sense of Urgency Create a Sense of Urgency. Help others feel a gut-level determination to move and win, now Complacency - It's a state where people fail to react to signs that action must be taken, telling themselves and each other, "Everything is fine.“ False urgency - People are busy, working-working-working, but their actions don't contribute toward profitable result. True urgency - People are clearly focused on making real progress every single day. Urgent behavior is driven by a belief that the world contains great opportunities and great hazards. It inspires a gut-level determination to move, and win, now.
