Review :
I have known John Allen for over 20 years; I can confidently say he's a virtuoso at unraveling the seemingly unsolvable. Simple Strategies is a masterclass in problem-solving and brilliantly captures his science-driven, physics-rooted methodology. I've personally witnessed John dissect and resolve issues I believed were impossible. His structured approach has consistently brought clarity and solutions to my most vexing challenges. This book is a must-read for anyone tackling complexity in engineering and beyond. -JOE SULLIVAN, Former Senior Vice-President, world-wide operations Logitech This book succinctly teaches you how to find the basis of unintended performance. Mastering this technique will allow you to quickly solve problems in machine behavior. The model that John Allen presents here is about how to change your mental model of machine behavior to learn something new each day. I encourage you to start your journey with the techniques and tools found in this book. -JUDSON B. ESTES, Quality Engineering Instructor, Detroit Diesel Professor, Oakland University The engineers and problem solvers in Simple Strategies are reminiscent of the inventors in the remarkable Turkish novel Kitab-ül Hiyel. Both have a relentless pursuit of understanding in creating and working with mechanisms. Both books share the powerful principle of "seeing with fresh eyes" and the realization that all knowledge, no matter how expansive, converges into a single point of clarity - a moment when everything aligns and the solution becomes unmistakable. As a Turkish engineer collaborating with John, I've seen how these principles enable us to diagnose performance and solve technical problems with clarity and efficiency. John's insight and ability to refine this approach are inspiring, and his contributions continue to enhance how we achieve results. -ÖZGE EROL, Associate Consultant at Crossover Solutions A must-read to enable quick problem solving in the most pragmatic manner in industries. Forget half of what you learned on problem solving so far, and you will speed up by a factor of 10. -DR. GUNTRAM HAAS, Global Operations Director at MAHLE John Allen is an exceptional problem solver who has solved some of the toughest problems. In his new book, he has taken problem solving to the next level with a model-based approach. For any technical problem solver, reading, learning and applying the concepts in this book will be extremely helpful. -KUSH SHAH, CEO, Global Organizational Excellence Solutions, Six Sigma MBB, DFSS MBB, Shainin Red X Master This is the book that I wish John could have given to me when I first met him decades ago. His passion for Effective Problem Solving shines through these pages. If you have not yet been exposed to John's work and body of knowledge, read this book, then put these strategies and principles to the test. You will not be disappointed, and you will no doubt find that you had a bit of fun along the way! -DAVID KNEISLER, Vice President of Global Quality, Dana Inc. (Retired) and former Chairman of the Board, Automotive Industry Action Group (AIAG) The teachings in John's book have not only allowed us to solve difficult technical problems in days rather than months, but have also reignited our passion for engineering! Jon's approach is a refreshing departure from the conventional "lean-six sigma" black box models, encouraging engineers and technicians to focus not just on solving problems, but on truly under standing the underlying physical principles at play. His inspiring methods make the learning process enjoyable, and the resulting happy customers and significant cost savings are the icing on the cake! -BRYAN ZIEGLER, Michelin Tire, Operations Director
