Book Overview
The sixth volume of Bob Emiliani's acclaimed REAL LEAN book series goes where few Lean books dare.
The book opens with a an exclusive, candid interview with legendary CEO Art Byrne (Wiremold, Danaher) who reflects on nearly three decades of Lean practice, including why so few executives become genuine Lean leaders.
The author then analyzes more than a dozen problems: neglect of the "Respect for People" principle, the absence of economists who understand flow, the political misuse of Lean ("Leanpolitik"), the Curse of the Change Agent, and the inadvertent harm caused by zero-sum implementations, among others.
If you're tired of recycled tool-talk and ready to confront what's really holding Lean back, this is your guide to the next frontier of progressive management.
Each chapter delivers blunt diagnosis and practical countermeasures.
