Despite the popularity of lean and continuous improvement around the world, most organisations and their leaders struggle to make improvement work.
Many are trying to cope with day-to-day business issues. They bury their heads in the work as they either give up on trying to improve or are floundering as they keep trying new initiatives to improve with little success. Most lean thinking and improvement publications focus on the use of improvement tools but never really get to the core of why organisations are not seeing the real results from these techniques and lean thinking as an improvement strategy. They talk about what to do but not about the common problems you can expect along the way and how to navigate these and create a fundamental change in how the business works. Making Lean and Continuous Improvement Work will help solve this problem and help leaders build a solid foundation to making lean and continuous improvement work in their business.
Through numerous examples and detailed case studies, the book shows how business leaders, managers and frontline supervisors can make lean and continuous improvement techniques work, increasing consistency and getting more work done, in less time.
