Performance management, the primary focus of a Lean
organization, occurs through continuous improvement programs that
focus on education, belief systems development, and effective
change management. Presenting a first-of-its-kind approach, The
Lean Management Systems Handbook details the critical components
required for sustainable Lean management.
Positioning Lean as a management operational philosophy far beyond
the traditional set of improvement tools, the book explains how
managers at all levels of the organization can integrate Lean into
their daily management activities. It defines the Lean philosophy
as well as the beliefs and behaviors required to develop a thriving
Lean company culture.
The book captures the essence of Lean learning and Lean doing and
illustrates practical applications of Lean management. It begins by
covering the basics that encompass Lean management and leadership
in two critical areas: maintenance/control and improvement.
After reading this book, you will better understand how to see
waste, measure waste, eliminate waste, and develop an active change
improvement workplace. You will also gain the practical
understanding required to determine which Lean tool is best suited
to your particular need for supporting an organization-wide
management system.
Expounding on essential Lean concepts, this is an ideal guide to
help new managers and leaders make the transition from theory to
successful application in the field. Complete with brief summaries
and examples of the most important tools in Lean management systems
development in each chapter, the book provides a reliable roadmap
for deploying a Lean management system across your organization,
and subsequently across your entire value stream.
