Some principles I learned from a leadership seminar are 1) using the right tools for doing a particular job and, 2) making sure that the tool is prepared for the job it will be used for. These two principles are very simple but, in my own experience, have been very effective.
For example, when cutting wood, it is not wise to use a hammer to cut through it. A screwdriver won’t do any good as well. Using an axe or a chainsaw, the right tool, will not only lessen the effort exerted but also shorten the time that is used to finish the job.
Another example is in the marine industry, the use of a Material Handling System provides materials handling solutions through the use of mobile gantry cranes. This equipment allows for faster and safer handling of very large and bulky materials that are difficult to move and handle. Shuttlelift.com offers these Gantry Cranes that provides greater efficiency for its users.
Aside from using the right tools, preparing the tools and making sure that they are in their best shape is also essential. A sharpened axe is much more efficient tha a dull one. Similarly, Gantry Cranes that are engineered for higher duty cycles and greater ground speed creates greater efficiency.
