|---|---|---|---|
Purposedifferent | The method protects energy and attention for the task that creates the largest progress and is often postponed. | For an acute quality or delivery problem, the method structures immediate protection and root cause work together. It keeps the situation stable while the actual cause is investigated cleanly. | It separates true priorities from noise so it becomes clear what should be done now, scheduled, delegated, or dropped. |
