Finding an Optimum – ‘More Haste: Less Speed’ | Video

‘More haste: less speed’ my dad would say. And it is certainly true when you are trying to find an optimum way of doing things.

This video is safe for viewing in the workplace.

This is learning, so, sit back and enjoy

In this short thought-video, I muse on this and look at why shortcuts in project management tend to fail. I connect this to two well-documented paradoxes:

• Jevons Paradox – William Stanley Jevons, 1860s
• Braess Paradox – Dietrich Braess, 1960s

The fast route is not always the best route. More haste – less speed.
