Lean technology has now evolved from the manufacturing floor to the whole enterprise. Many companies have found real value in applying the fundamental concepts of Lean throughout the organization. The lean concepts of Kaizen, PDCA and the tools such as Pareto Charts, 5 Why's and even Poka Yoke are commonplace.
As a result of discussing a Lean Enterprise with Dr. Michael Balle, I asked him about his thoughts on the culture of Lean.
Dr. Balle is also a Shingo Prize winner as an author of the The Gold Mine
Dr. Michael Balle is the Gemba Coach at the Lean Enterprise Institute
