The short article praises Ward because the author read Ward's book.
Ward was basically teaching Deming, though. The real division is in Deming's response to Taylor.
- hef19898 3y agoSo, the author wrote about a subject without studying beyond one book from one auther he liked a lot? Just more of the 21st century shallow internet then. Edit: And someone who never heard of how Toyota, and basically everyone else, is doing things now to an extent in the hardware world...
- pessimizer 3y ago> I’m creating flashcards from my notes of Ward’s book on product development and it is chock full of wisdom. It's somebody reading a book that most people haven't read, taking notes on it, and allowing the public to read those notes. Calm down.
- hef19898 3y agoSo, instead of discussing the actual research and body of knowledge, we discuss some first semesters "flashcards" one single book? I know it is a meta complaint, but I really would have prefered something with a littel more substance to it.
- civilized 3y agoCould you elaborate? Why is the contrast drawn here not the real division? EDIT: I figured it out. For anyone else who is confused, Allen C. Ward wrote Lean Product and Process Development, and the parent is saying that Ward is simply repackaging what W. E. Deming taught.
