Optimizing the flow workshop at Porto Alegre (Dec 2012 edition)

The Optimizing the flow workshop at Porto Alegre (Dec 2012 edition) was awesome!

Once again, I did learn a lot while giving the workshop, and having great conversations (group and individually) about the participants real projects experience.

The whiskey and flow presentation was the participant’s favorite. Note to self; keep using it.

Something I said which people really liked:

My wife celebrates every time I empty a whiskey bottle.

So, what can I do to my bar that would make her happier?

…

Reduce the bar size (less bottles means lower lead time; she will receive empty bottles faster)

Below are some photos from this workshop instance.

Thanks for the feedback!
