George Koenigsaecker, President, Lean Investments, LLC'The purpose of lean systems is to make problems glaringly obvious. If implementation does not include standard leadership and cultural support systems to constantly address problems, the point of the system is missed. Many books address lean tools and initial conversion, but if you want the system to stick, read David's book.'Robert (Doc) Hall, EditorInChief, Target, Association for Manufacturing Excellence'Mann's book is an excellent start toward Lean Leadership as 'processdependent' rather than 'persondependent' in style.'Ross E.
