Only one boss : the Customer

Boss = Customer

Operating a product development process at full utilization is an economic disaster (Don Reinertsen)

Optimal batch size

Innovation comes from the producer and not from the Customer ( W. Edwards DEMING)

People are already doing their best the problems are with the system.

Only Management can change the system. ( W. Edwards DEMING)

People are already doing their best
