A theme has emerged for me at TOCICO 2014 across many of the talks and discussion this year. We generate big changes in implementing Theory of Constraints in organizations. And those big changes by their very nature create conflicts. How should we respond to these conflicts?
Bruce Hoppe finds an interesting set of discussions that suggest "conflict is good" in his "Conflict: something we can all agree on." I wonder if there is a connection with constraints in TOC.
"They Just Don't Get It! (Changing resistance into understanding)" by Leslie Yerkes and Randy Martin is a quick and entertaining read. It is written as a how-to manual, not unlike the top-seller "Who Moved My Cheese?"
Dave Pollard has another in depth tome in yesterday's "The Psychology of Information, or Why We Don't Share Stuff." I like that he acknowledges the importance of the underlying human behaviors in this dilemma.
