(1) Just in Time Strategy

In this episode of English Pod, hosts Marco and Erica explore the Just In
Time (JIT) philosophy, a business strategy focused on efficiency and cost
reduction. They discuss the concept's origins, its implementation in companies like
Toyota, and its impact on reducing lead times and minimizing redundancies. Key
vocabulary related to JIT is introduced, including 'lead time,' 'workstation,'
'defective,' and 'redundancies.' The dialogue illustrates a company's plan to
implement JIT to avoid layoffs and improve production efficiency, while the hosts
provide language takeaways for business settings.
