Quote: jidoka is the whistle

as soon a something unexpected happens,
the first one who sees it blows the whistle.
Everyone stops, we find the root cause of the problem, we improve, and then continue.
Visual planning is a method that helped realize jidoka.
One could say that jidoka "is" the whistle
