  • in order to apply lean thinking you also need others to apply
• apply Lean Thinking to knowledge
  • just-in-time epistemology
    • Education
  • focusing on your strategy rather than jumping on "shiny bits of knowledge"
    • cf BackEnd?action=print Seedea:Research/Bibliography Seedea:Research/StrategicalEpistemology
