| Summary |
Improvement techniques are like spices: better when blended. Many organizations seem to lose sight of the techniques that still work in addition to Lean & Six Sigma and TPM. This book is a collection of simple stories that show the best ways to find and fix four companies' problems. The authors use the most appropriate tools for the problems. It shows that four different companies all suffer much the same issues but explains why they think are unique. |
