Two conversations this week involved process control. One involved coffee beans and the other scrap steel. One discussed why the direct trade coffee (from the Chavarria farm in Nicaragua) tastes so much better than the big chain brands. The other conversation with the CEO of a software company discussed achieving high quality steel products from the raw material input of assorted scrap steel.
A couple of takeaways.
The quality of the feedstock, the raw material the process begins with, impacts the process and the final product.
Adjusting the process to allow for variations of feedstock impacts the quality of the final product.
Just so in our own development.
What is the quality of the feedstock with which you fill your attention and mind?
How do you process, that is, reflect on, the stuff filling your attention and mind?
