Lean Production Simplified

Rezensionen / Stimmen

"There is a need for a book exactly like this, and Pascal has the experience, knowledge, and passion to write it. Pascal Dennis is one of many Westerners who, during the past 20 years, have gained firsthand experience with 'Lean production' or the Toyota Production System (TPS). At Toyota Motor Manufacturing Canada, one of Toyota's early and successful efforts to transplant TPS outside the confines of Toyota City in Japan, Pascal received personalized mentoring from his trainer from Toyota City about each of the processes, systems, and philosophies explained in this book."-John Shook, Senior Advisor, Lean Enterprise Institute; President, TWI Network, Inc., Ann Arbor, Michigan, USAPraise for the Shingo Prize-Winning Second Edition:

"Lean Production Simplified is both enlightening and informative for all levels of 'Lean learners.' It is written from a very human perspective. Many prior publications focus on the 'Lean bag of tools' or the softer cultural aspects of Lean. Dennis' contribution is a well integrated blend of both giving the reader not only a systemic understanding of Lean, but also the clear skill development required for leadership at all levels. Wherever you are on your journey to Lean, Lean Production Simplified will provide further knowledge and insight to help achieve the next level on the eternal path to perfection."
-Anne Stevens, VP, North America Vehicle Operations, Ford Motor Company

"This book is just too important! In this age of global competition threatening to annihilate all but the very Leanest, Pascal Dennis' masterwork, Lean Production Simplified: A Plain-Language Guide to the World's Most Powerful Production System, is a must-read. Midway through my career, after working at five large North American manufacturing companies, it's absolutely crystal clear that the three which 'died' would have survived if only they'd known of and successfully implemented The Toyota Production System."
-Michael A. J. Davis, Executive VP, Waterville TG, Inc.

"Lean Production Simplified goes beyond being a 'primer' for the Toyota Production System - it is 'Lean thinking' at its best, revealed and explained. Pascal Dennis has drawn from his own experience at Toyota to help the reader understand the meaning behind their language of success, with the why's and how's explained clearly with illustrations that include the very forms used to collect and organize data. Be prepared to have your continuous improvement/people skills honed to a higher level. Whether you're a CEO, president, vice president, manager, supervisor, leader, engineer, HR specialist, employee, or a private owner, Lean Production Simplified is not a book you will read once. It's a book you will read once and then use as a reference book to read and re-read again and again, as its content is absorbed into your area of influence."
