Moving Forward Faster: The Mental Evolution from Fake Lean to REAL Lean

by Bob Emiliani

At long last, the deep secrets of Lean management are revealed! This provocative and insightful book clearly explains why Lean management, despite its overwhelming advantages over conventional management, has yet to become ubiquitous in organizations. This book presents the key economic, social, political ideas that must diminish or be eliminated, and historical facts that must be understood and acknowledged in order to experience long-term success with Lean management. It will challenge, annoy, frighten, enlighten, frustrate, educate, and enliven you. Readers will gain a clear picture of how remarkably different Lean leaders' minds are compared to conventional leaders' minds. The differences range from great to small and reflect an overall way of thinking that completely upends the norm - for the customer, and for the better.

An interesting piece by Emiliani, one of my favorite Lean thinkers. A little oft-putting in some spots, so difficult to share with executive leaders when trying to convince them of the journey.
