Reviews:"This book became an instant classic in the literature of
professional operations. In this third edition, David Mann updates
and expands his teaching with five additional years of valuable
experience and expertise derived from his very active,
multi-industry consultancy. I have benefitted greatly from his
writing and wholeheartedly recommend this book to be top-of-the
desk of any serious Lean practitioner or performance transformation
leader." - Raymond C. Floyd, two-time Shingo Prize Winner,
President and CEO, Plasco Energy Group "David Mann builds
substantially on his seminal work on the Lean management system.
The book is full of new insight and polishes the most important
ideas about Lean management. The new chapter on engaging executive
leadership alone is worth the price of the book." - Peter Ward,
Richard M. Ross Professor and Chair, Department of Management
Science, Fisher College of Business, The Ohio State University
"This book has long been my 'go-to' guide on Lean management
practices that help create a culture of continuous improvement and
excellence. I have recommended the book to countless healthcare
leaders who rave about how helpful it is in translating Lean
principles into daily management behaviors. The healthcare examples
make it even more relevant as a must read for any hospital leader
who aims to move beyond Lean tools.." -Mark Graban, author of Lean
Hospitals, co-author of Healthcare Kaizen and The Executive Guide
to Healthcare Kaizen "As more companies outside the manufacturing
sector pursue Lean transformations, Creating a Lean Culture is as
critical a resource as ever. Breaking down silos and navigating
tricky internecine politics remain a momentous challenge, and
Mann's case-based insights are an invaluable tool." - Peg
Pennington, Executive Director, Center for Operational Excellence,
Fisher College of Business, The Ohio State University "David has
once again taken the topics that trip us up and put structure and
guidance around them. His new work on executive involvement is
worth the price of the book all by itself. Many of us have
struggled with this topic and David provides a path to success." -
Elizabeth M. King, Vice President Organizational Effectiveness,
