Been thinking a lot about this lately.
Facebook, LinkedIn, Twitter, YouTube, as well as, the abundance of cell phone apps -- what do they mean for Lean thinkers?
Seems to me social media represent a powerful new learning channel -- provided we keep the fundamentals in mind.
Yokoten -- means shared, lateral, experiential learning.
We learn by doing -- not by browsing.
If we spend too much time at our screens -- we sacrifice depth.
Depth of understanding requires action followed by reflection -- away from your screen.
Use the screen to supplement your knowledge.
Then turn the damned thing off and get to the gemba, where you must practice, practice, practice.
Social media are marvelous, helpful and oh so seductive. Used properly, they're a boon.
But they're no substitute for experience, for the school of hard knocks, of growth & learning.
