Bottleneck Vs Discipline

 Bottleneck Vs Discipline: Though a technical terminology used to define the process flow constraints, it can still be related to every other system when the efficiency evaluation is carried out.

In any process industry, there are various stages of operations & functions & each of these functions has their standard processing time, that when combined with every process & operation from input to be converted into finished goods may help determine the overall cycle time of the entire process. 
So for example there are A, B, C, D & E processes defined to get a desired Finished Product, process A takes 10 minutes to complete, B takes 12 minutes, while C & D may take 10 minutes & E again takes 11 minutes, here process B with highest time consuming process is the bottleneck, hence all necessary constraints may have to be studied & reviewed to either reduce the process time of B to 10 minutes or if possible then it should be even reduced further. Once process B time is reduced to 10 minutes, the next bottleneck will be E. And so on there can be continuous improvement in each process to make sure that all available technological innovations are deployed to ensure that these process time remains optimized without compromising quality, safety & cost.
A long & profound study on these methodology has enough evidence that the human resources deployed in these operations & functions responsible for optimization of any given process are major bottlenecks that keep impacting & varying the end results.
Human resources may give inconsistent results depending upon all given external circumstances, i.e. economical situation, home environment, personal life challenges, interpersonal issues at workplace, unfulfilled expectations, wasted interests & so on.
If any Organization is liberal enough to look into either of it & may consider giving any solution to it, another constraint may come up & it may never give any desired results whatsoever investment of time & resources are made.
It is because of this inconsistent nature of the input from Humans, Discipline in every organization becomes an inevitable medium & tool to address the most difficult & yet critical bottleneck of every process.
Without discipline while the process output remains unpredictable, the entire business too may remain vulnerable in almost every quarter.

Being Nice Vs. Being Good.

  Being Nice Vs. Being Good. Being Nice is when one tries to nod with whatever is being said & done. Thereby not to offend the offenders, not to shake up their perspectives, not to showcase any alternative probabilities, not to draw their attention towards facts, not to talk them down on any subject matter that they are not willing or ready to be taught or enlightened. Being Good is when one tries to do the right thing for them without hurting or invading the rights or well being of anyone else. Being good begins with initiation of thoughts followed by actions that carry genuine intentions. Contrary to being nice that is always going to remain focused on the self image of the imposter, being good can many times appear not to be so nice, especially when one is not ready to read the intentions. While it becomes an art when one is trying to practice being good in a nicer way. Relationship advisors & management consultants do confess that mostly none of thei...
