The fastest solution to any concrete problem is a single ply specific solution.

  • The fastest solution to any concrete problem is a single ply specific solution.
    • It won't solve other problems, and it might cause more problems in the next plys.
    • But it does solve the immediate problem in front of you.
    • Organizations spend a lot of time doing duct-tape one-ply solutions on problems that were originally caused by a one-ply solution in a previous step.
      • This can recurse all the way back to the beginning of time.
    • The only way to break this chain is to think more than one ply at a time.
