(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.
