▶ Scientific thinking as mindset

Today, we're delving into a fundamental concept for enhancing our processes: scientific thinking. It's a crucial mindset that goes beyond the traditional scientific method, applicable to all activities, including those related to Lean Manufacturing.



▶ Scientific thinking is not a natural process

Scientific thinking starts with the humble acknowledgment that our understanding of phenomena is often incomplete and can be incorrect.

Every idea must undergo rigorous verification. When things don't go as expected, it's not a failure but an opportunity to learn and improve our process.

The essence of scientific thinking lies in fostering curiosity, constantly seeking to understand how processes work, and having the will to take steps toward better comprehension.

It's an ongoing comparison between what we have in our minds and what happens in reality, aiming to adjust and enhance our understanding of phenomena.

It's crucial to highlight that scientific thinking isn't our natural way of working.

Our minds often seek quick conclusions to conserve energy, but by adopting this mindset, we can learn to think and react more scientifically.



▶ Scientific thinking and Toyota Kata

A concrete example of practicing scientific thinking in the context of Lean Manufacturing is through the Toyota Kata.

This approach guides us in the continuous improvement process, emphasizing testing and constant learning.

In conclusion, scientific thinking is a key to success in Lean Manufacturing and many other activities.

Each of us can learn to think more scientifically, and it's a valuable investment for continuous improvement.
