This very concise and straightforward book is aimed at top
executives in virtually any industry who are either new to the
concept of Lean and its benefits to them or who have stalled in
their transformations and are trying to resurrect their momentum.
The book is written in a style that mirrors a typical interaction
with an executive across a table with a knowledgeable, experienced
Lean coach/consultant. Its style and substance reflect what a
candid and casual conversation would sound and feel like. The book
includes simple hand-drawn images (thus the title Lean Leadership
on a Napkin) to facilitate and simplify basic concepts as if a real
dialogue was occurring in an informal setting. It assumes that the
executives have a little or no previous knowledge of Lean
methodologies or Lean Leadership but have awakened to the
possibility of their promise to grow themselves and their
enterprises dramatically. Most executives have little time for
extensive reading or patience with "sales" presentations. Those
same leaders will therefore appreciate the simple, uncluttered,
and, above all, objective summary this book provides. The book
breaks down the process of transforming the organization around
Lean principles into three component transformational phases or
steps, namely, Introduction, Integration, and Internalization
(i.e., the I-3 strategy). Each phase includes critical factors to
understand, do, and share as well as deep reflection questions to
help leaders decide on an appropriate path forward for themselves
as leaders and for their organizations. While the Integration and
Internalization steps are introduced here, the primary focus of
this work is on those critical issues arising in the early,
Introduction, step. A unique advantage of this book is that it
braids together four critical elements of success-Lean
concepts/methodology, culture change, leadership, and business
performance. Essentially, the reader will obtain a broad, basic,
and solid understanding and leadership foundation about Lean, the
leader's unique role in transformation, and confidence to make
appropriate decisions about the how and if to proceed. In addition,
it will offer a path forward by providing the reader with abundant
resources and consulting support for those seeking to launch a Lean
transformation.
