First sentence: Every day, businesses worldwide work tirelessly to complete tasks, finish projects, and meet deadlines. Employees rush from meeting to meeting, frantically typing emails, barely catching their breath before diving into the next task. Yet, despite all this effort, it often seems like nothing gets done. Deadlines are missed, projects are delayed, and customers grow frustrated. Why does this cycle of busyness and lack of progress persist? The culprit is often Work in Process (WIP), an unseen force that plagues businesses, causing massive delays, decreased productivity, and costly build-ups of inventory.
