Episode notes
Adjust Takt Time
- Don't fixate on a single Takt time; adjust as needed.
- Optimize from a starting point (e.g., five days) based on project specifics.
Multiple Takt Times
- Varying work package durations within a Takt phase are normal.
- Takt planning helps reveal adjustments needed for flow by highlighting these variations.
Maintain Takt Rhythm
- Aim for consistent speed and spacing of trades (like a train).
- If a task doesn't fit the Takt, consider splitting it, making it a separate phase, or adjusting the overall Takt.
