2、e. The sum of local optima does not equate to the global optimum. Improvements in subsystem performance must be gauged only through its impact on the whole system.,Systems Thinking and the Theory of Constraints,“Find the essence of each situation, like a logger clearing a log jam. The pro climbs a t

3、all tree, locates the key log, blows it, and lets the stream do the rest. An amateur would start at the edge of the jam and move all the logs, eventually moving the key log. Both approaches work, but the essence concept saves time and effort. Almost all problems have a key log if we learn to find it
