520 _aThe goal of Lean is to identify and eliminate nonessential and non-value-adding steps in business processes to streamline operations, improve quality, and gain customer loyalty. Implementation of Lean technologies for many prestigious Fortune 500 companies as well as smaller companies has netted larger profit margins, higher-quality products and services, improved employee engagement, increased customer satisfaction, and lower operating costs. The return on investment regarding Lean initiatives has been stellar. This book introduces basic Lean rules and principles in a variety of simulated case studies drawn from the author’s professional experiences as a Lean coach, trainer, and manager. In each instance, the author presents a different scenario for implementing Lean technologies.
