Synopsis: Winner of a Shingo Research and Professional Publication AwardThe new and revised edition of this modern day classic provides the critical piece that will make any lean transformation a dynamic continuous success. It shows you how to implement a transformation that cannot fail by developing a culture that will have all your stakeholders involved in the process and invested in the outcome. It will teach you how to build success from the top down and the bottom up at the same time. If you are a leader at any level in an organization undergoing or considering a lean transformation, this is where you should start and finish ... and start again.Praise for the First Edition of the Shingo Prize Winning International Bestseller. . .... an excellent review of one of the most common implementation issues in a lean transformation -- the essential day to day work practices of team leaders/supervisors/value stream managers that enable the lean system. -- George Koenigsaecker, President, Lean Investments, LLC? . . . reprinted seven times The purpose of lean systems is to make problems glaringly obvious.
