A Little Help - Don't Overwork, Don't Underwork

We've been working our way through a series on the assumptions of Little's Law, and this episode is about the importance of keeping your WIP constant in your system as a whole.

Little’s Law doesn’t tell you the right amount of WIP—it just wants it to be stable so that you're pulling work at the same rate that work is completed. This way, your system stays flowing and is neither underworked nor overworked.

In this episode, Host Phil Ledgerwood illustrates how this assumption of Little's Law works, and how you can implement it in your team.
