from Granularity of information How much information will be written on each KJ method fusen, and how granularly will it be chopped?
-
Actual examples by Jiro Kawakita himself (Exploratory Studies of Knowledge p.123)
-
On the right side, there are “dot-notes and self-indulgent pleasures” that I wrote down in shorthand during the interview.
-
The label on the left is made from a clean copy of it.
-
Each label sheet consists of two rows of small labels (4 cm long), 12 labels in total, affixed to a backing sheet. The individual labels are perforated so that they can be torn off from the backing paper as well. (p.121)
-
4cm is even smaller than my 38mm x 50mm fusible wrap?
-
About 40mm x 15mm channel 4 label.
-
People unfamiliar with the KJ method may find it “very granular”.
-
Especially when you think of the so-called information card in the expression “writing information on a card and arranging it”.
-
I would think that a lot more text would be written.
-
-
On the other hand, many people write in one word when given a limited amount of time to make labels at a workshop, etc.
- Writing a lot takes time.

The granularity of the nameplate after grouping - fog of avidity and other illustrations made by Jiro Kawakita himself.
- Often hear the comment, “Surprisingly long.”
- If you’ve categorized your labels, your nameplate tends to be the one word that represents that categorical category.
- It’s not just whether it’s one word or not, but also the high percentage of verbs it contains.
- Related: Explain with verbs.
- It’s hard to explain with verbs if you’ve classified them.
