To compete successfully in today’s economy, organizations need to be as good as or better than their global competitors. This goes not only for quality, but also for costs and cycle times (lead time, processing time, delivery time, set-up time, response time, etc.). Lean addresses these needs in its emphasis on teamwork, continuous training and learning, produce to demand (“pull”), mass customization and batch size reduction, cellular flow, quick changeover, and total productive maintenance. Originally applied in manufacturing settings, lean has now migrated to non-shop floor activities: in business support functions, such as sales, customer service, accounting, human resources, engineering, purchasing; within manufacturing firms; and also in purely service areas like finance, government, and healthcare.For Sale in Indian subcontinent onlyContentsIntroduction to Lean and Kaizen Change Management and Kaizen Teams Brainstorming Techniques in Kaizen EventsLean Kaizen in the Twenty-First Century How to Perform a Kaizen Event Kaizen Event Examples 7 Cost-Benefit Analysis for Kaizen ProjectsConclusion
