Critique of Lean: Pathway to Improvement Bob Emiliani

Critique of Lean examines the fundamental nature of Lean management and its association to Toyota's management system. This rigorous and insightful critique challenges decades-old assertions of philosophical, technical, and evolutionary sameness. The result is a clear differentiation between Lean and Toyota's management system. Professor Emiliani reveals the truth about Lean. In doing so, he provides valuable guidance to both the originators of Lean and the users of Lean for improving the product, Lean, with the intention to achieve better outcomes for all stakeholders. Critique of Lean will change how you think about Lean.
