Shingo Prize Winning Recipient Authors New Book

Get on the Fast Track to Lean! New textbook (and workshop) now available.

Reno, NV (PRWEB) February 24, 2004 -- New Book Release: "Lean Leader Certification Workshop Guidebook." Written by Shingo Prize recipient Gary Conner, this text is designed for anyone seeking knowledge about application of the Lean Manufacturing techniques used by Toyota, John Deere, General Electric and others. A week long Certification workshop is also scheduled for April 19-23 at the Atlantis Hotel & Casino in Reno Nevada.

US and Canadian manufacturers are seeking to improve their performance in order to compete in a world wide market. Larger OEM's (original equipment manufacturers) have lots of reading materials about the Toyota Production System. Smaller companies, particularly Job Shops and Make-to-Order shops have found the techniques hard to apply. This book and workshop will assist your efforts by describing hybrid approaches that work in these unique environments.

Cost of this new text is $49.95 plus $5.00 (S/H)

Chock full of case studies, example and exercises, there is at least one graphic on each of the 320 pages.

Cost for the April 19th Reno workshop is $1995. Five days intensive "hands-on" training make this certification workshop a must for in plant Lean Coordinators and Black Belts. Limited to 30 participants, reservations are required. Call (541) 574-0398 to reserve your seat(s).

Facilitated by Gary Conner, recipient of the 2002 Shingo Prize (named after the famed Japanese Engineer Shigeo Shingo) this "Self Discovery" workshop is designed with the adult learner in mind. Simulation based, participants will experience the transformation of a "company" from batch manufacturing to Lean in a 40 hour week.
