See to Solve LLC was created by Steve Spear, senior lecturer at MIT, senior fellow at the Institute for Healthcare Improvement, and author of works such as Decoding the DNA of the Toyota Production System, Learning to Lead at Toyota, Fixing Healthcare from the Inside, and The High Velocity Edge.

You show up at work to solve hard problems that no one could resolve individually, and you bust it to develop design and deliver great products and services. But that outfit “across the street” keeps beating you, arriving earlier and faster with solutions to their customers problems that fit better and which they generated with seemingly less effort. How’d they pull that off when you've got access to the same science and technology, the same talent pool, and more or less the same market information?

Nested and linked maps
When processes become too complex, you can simply collapse sets of steps into process groups allowing you easy access to both the forest and the trees.
-
Personalized "focus view"
Individual team members can focus the map on their swim lane, hiding irrelevant details. Relevant inbound/outbound tasks from other lanes are highlighted and a printable summary of all their tasks is available for them.
