The solution is elegant in that the physical blocks trigger sensemaking (in my words) more than a screen version might. They can push a puck slightly out of its track to highlight that more action is necessary. All the members of the team can immediately step in to provide relief given their common understanding of the system. Elegant, green (no need for power or paper), easily visible to all in the room — good for team visualization.

I agree with the comment above for most of the cases,however,I belive that sometimes it actually helps to have more choices. Additional choices can bring fresher perspectives which can help make a better decision. -Vipin “Making good choices becomes more difficult the more choices you have”

Was it directed at me? Ha ha. I am guilty of making "bad choices" as it relates to social media. You are correct in stating that people want to follow (Twitter) someone interesting with some sort of expertise. As Professor Palmer stated, "All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy." However, there is a fine line between quality and quantity of content and is it relevant to my audience. Joe Great post. Was it directed at me? Ha ha.
