Introduction to Lean Manufacturing: The Road to Continuous Improvement

By Bryan McWhorter

All businesses can benefit from "Lean." Learn the benefits of lean manufacturing and how to initiate a lean program. The author helps us understand what lean thinking and methods offer. We need a sense of purpose before we apply any effort. Companies often fail at implementing lean due to a poor rollout. Mr. McWhorter helps us avoid this. The success of lean relies on people and processes. We need all employees to recognize leans potential for improving the work environment. Supervisors, managers and those in authority positions must become mentors, role models, and coaches. We are seeking to improve all that we do and how we do it. We all succeed, or we all fail together. The name "Lean Manufacturing" is misleading. All businesses and organizations can significantly benefit from initiating a lean manufacturing program. Lean Enterprise may be a better title.
