Lean Enterprise Institute
May 29, 2007

I hope everyone had a happy and safe Memorial Day weekend. 

This blog post talks about the exclusion and non-participation of people at work.  It also discusses the Lean Enterprise Institute and how eliminating waste is an easy way to build ESOP and company value.  What is Lean? 

“A business system for organizing and managing product development, operations, suppliers, and customer relations. Business and other organizations use lean principles, practices, and tools to create precise customer value—goods and services with higher quality and fewer defects—with less human effort, less space, less capital, and less time than the traditional system of mass production.”
