    Thinking Lean Game

    The document discusses introducing new symbols to replace numbers 1-10 due to an economic crisis. It asks the reader to take 45 seconds to memorize the symbols, then tests their recall. Most people have difficulty remembering all the symbols. The discussion section notes that people tend to think about the symbols individually rather than as a connected system. It reveals that the symbols were simply outlines of the numbers themselves. This is meant to illustrate that taking a "systems view" and looking at the whole, rather than individual parts, can lead to more effective problem solving.

    Click Economic crisis!
    • Due to the recent economic crisis, it has
    become apparent that our current system of
    numbers is no longer working.
    • To address this crisis, a new set of symbols has
    been created to replace the current numbers 1
    – 10.
    • It is imperative that we learn these new
    symbols as quickly as possible.
    • Our world as we know it, depends on each of us
    to do our best!

    • Which symbols do most people get right?
     1 – due to repetition
     10 – Its different and it represents the Roman numeral “10”
     5 – Its different
     7 – Its similar to the number 7
    • Most people look for a pattern and have difficulty finding it in a
    short amount of time.
    • We are looking at the pieces rather than the whole.
    • This is sometimes referred to as “Silo Thinking”
