In this insightful session led by Glenn Ballard at AOM 2010 in Montreal, attendees explore how to maintain productive tension between collaboration and competition. Key challenges include managing externally imposed demands and self-imposed goals, inspired by Taiichi Ohno's philosophy of revealing issues by "lowering the river." The discussion highlights targeting construction costs effectively, with an initial goal set at $911 million, 14% below market rates. It also emphasizes the importance of creating a safe environment for creativity and learning, showcased through innovative projects like the combined Patient Lift and Medical Boom.
