Do you think teams overestimate how scalable their processes are? I’ve seen workflows that worked great for 5 people completely break at 20.

Yes absolutely all the time

100%

As someone mentioned the more handsome in the cookie jar the harder to keep in control. There has to be some serious hierarchy and, escalation control, and limits/rules set on who/ehen/why someone is doing anything the minute you start scaling and these rules must be in place prior to scaling.

Agree

How does a sole engineer at a company go about getting management to actually care how production machines run? I’m the only mechanical engineer at my company dealing with a half dozen cranky production managers who think that I can “work my magic” on a machine. It’s not magic, just ignorance about the machine actually works. How to I get a manager to stop caring about the end product long enough for me to actually teach them about their own machine?
