PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
by Bob Emiliani (Author)
The REAL LEAN series of books explains Lean management in ways that hundreds of other books do not. These original and creative works are written for hands-on Lean practitioners. Each volume is thoroughly researched and well documented, and provides an abundance of new information and perspectives to help ensure success with Lean management. The fifth volume of the REAL LEAN series presents a set of fundamental strategies that will help assure Lean management success. These strategies encourage executives to study Lean management history, analyze the failures of other companies, obtain a clearer view of reality at ground-level, better utilize internal and external human resources, and have greater confidence in their ability to become self-reliant in their Lean journey. As with prior Volumes of REAL LEAN, Volume Five emphasizes Lean as a management system and the "Respect for People" principle because both are usually missing from the practice of Lean management today. Readers will find this book to be amazingly insightful and filled with practical information that will help them better comprehend and put REAL LEAN into practice every day.
