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. This sixth volume of the REAL LEAN series shines a bright light on several major unsolved problems in Lean management and also identifies practical countermeasures using creative and original Lean thinking. It includes a special interview with the retired CEO of The Wiremold Company, Art Byrne, reflecting on his nearly 30 years of Lean practice. This volume also helps focus the Lean community's attention on specific areas to work on in order to advance manager's understanding and practice of Lean management. As with prior Volumes of REAL LEAN, Volume Six 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.
