When I go to a community forum, I found the topic interesting enough to focus on the differences on the issue and focus on solutions. Maybe this could be used as food for thought in our daily lives so that we are more prudent in choosing. Because life is a choice. Is not that so?
Case 1
When NASA sent astronauts into space, they found that it turns the pen can not be used in zero gravity (ink will not be pulled out).
To solve this problem, they do research for more than one decade and a cost of $ 12 million (equivalent to Rp.120 billion at the exchange rate $ 1 = 10.000, -).
To solve this problem, they do research for more than one decade and a cost of $ 12 million (equivalent to Rp.120 billion at the exchange rate $ 1 = 10.000, -).
They designed a pen that can be used in zero gravity, facing up, even in the water, on any surface (including glass) and the cold temperature of 300 degrees Celsius below zero.
So if for example you are confronted by problems like that, what would you suggest?
The answer issimply use a pencil.
CASE 2
One of the most famous case study in Japanese management is empty soap box case, which occurred in the company Japan's largest cosmetics.
The company received complaints from consumers that they are buying the soap was empty. With immediate part of customer complaints went to the field towards the product packaging. Product packaging section is the last line of the production process prior to the delivery part of the product.
They later found out that there is an empty soap box passing through the packaging, with some reason.
The management then asked the engineers to solve this problem. The engineers conducted experiments. They worked very hard and finally found the X-ray machine with a high resolution which is operated by two people to observe all the soap box pass, to ensure that the soap box is not empty.
No doubt the results they achieve.
They have worked very hard and fast, but they also spend no small cost. On the other place, a company with a much smaller scale find similar problems.
Now if you have a business as above and experiencing the same problem, what would you do?
A small company that does not use X-ray machines are very complicated.
They tried to split a different way, namely by way
They buy a special fan very strong and put it at a point on the packaging.
Once the fan is turned on, then any empty soap box and passes through the fan will immediately fly blowing in the wind.
What is the message of the two cases above?
Find everything possible solutions to the problem is simple. Start learning to focus on the solution, not the problem.
