The Power and Magic of Lean
?Norman Bodek is the secret weapon of lean manufacturing. In his 59 trips to Japan, Norman met Shigeo Shingo, Taiichi Ohno and other architects of lean, then published their books in English and other languages. The story of his quest is amazing, and it?s sprinkled with lessons for anyone interested in lean. Norman has launched a kaikaku ? a great transformation in awareness and in actual business. The term (kaikaku) means much more that kaizen (process improvement). It is a large and fundamental change in policy, practice, or awareness. Reading Norman?s reflections on his experience of the Toyota Production System will enrich your big picture perspective and help you discover the hidden treasures within your company: eliminating non-value adding wastes to bring out the creative capacity from every single worker.? www.sme.org - 2004-05-19
