Stop fighting the current job like it's the last job. In this episode, Jason shares "Do Not Fight the Last War" (War Series episode-4) and explains why "we've always done it this way" destroys improvement, blocks Lean thinking, and keeps teams stuck. You'll hear how PDCA applies to every system we use and why adapting to the project, the people, and the constraints is what wins. With stories from the field and a powerful Napoleon example, this one will challenge you to stay nimble and fight the war you're in right now.

What you'll learn in this episode:

Why PDCA must apply to every system Last Planner, Takt, IPD, and everything in between
How "we've always done it this way" becomes a trap that prevents learning and progress
Why you must adapt methods to the project, the team's capacity, and the current conditions
A real example of "room kitting" and how coordination can eliminate rework and protect flow
How history teaches principles but victory comes from applying them to the circumstances of today

Where are you repeating old tactics out of comfort when your project needs you to adapt and fight the current war?
