The fundamental idea

Dramatic improvement is fundamentally about improving productivity.

It's unfortunate that there isn't another word in the English language that captures the true essence of productivity, because people have a natural aversion to the word, because it seems to dehumanise us and seek to make us do what we ought to do rather than what we want to do. It's probably because it has historically been applied to machines and because of the shared root with production, which for most people has a manufacturing connotation.

It's only when you define the word carefully that the idea becomes more attractive, because productivity improvement is really about getting more of what you want, faster and in a less costly way - which is attractive in the context of any human endeavour.

Here's how we define productivity:

Productivity is the rate at which what you get out exceeds what you put in.

Productivity improvement is about improving that rate - and there are only 4 things that can be done to do so directly:

1. Get more out
2. Put less in
3. Do it more often
4. Do it less expensively.

The impact of the intervention is maximised if you do all four, simultaneously, because this creates a compounding impact on bottom-line performance.
