Description
Are you wondering how to do more with less by pushing "Lean thinking" beyond manufacturing into every area of your company? Meet Tom Papas, the hero of Pascal Dennis's enlightening Lean business novel The Remedy. As plant manager for New Jersey Motors Manufacturing (NJMM), Tom has used Lean methodologies and processes to make his manufacturing operation a bright spot for otherwise limping automaker Taylor Motors. Now Tom has been called to company headquarters near Detroit to meet with Senior Vice President Rachel Armstrong. Will she offer Tom a promotion? Or will the shortsighted CFO J. Ed Morgan cut NJMM to the bone and negate all Tom's hard work? A powerful story for today's challenging economy, The Remedy doubles as a highly readable playbook for taking your Lean practices into marketing, service, and other parts of the organization where Lean hasn't typically been applied. Bringing back characters from Dennis's Shingo Prize-winning Lean novel Andy & Me, including the reclusive quality sensei Andy Saito, this new tale demonstrates how you can bring Lean processes to your entire enterprise. Follow Tom, Rachel, and Andy as they embark on a mission to revitalize Taylor Motors in the face of the U.S. auto industry's devastating meltdown. Along the way, you'll discover illuminating new ways to: - Apply Lean concepts and methods beyond manufacturing to corporate functions such as marketing, supply chain, and design - Overcome the politics of large organizations as you create change - Define your True North-your strategic and philosophical objective - Apply Lean to knowledge-based workflows - Understand and strengthen the Four Rules and the Four Capabilities in your organization - Reduce waste and build value in different kinds of enterprises such as health care and retail Do you want to improve your business, but haven't considered Lean processes as a possible approach? The Remedy offers a vibrant, entertaining look at how today's Lean techniques can be applied far beyond the factory floor.
