Rex Murphy The biggest challenge in process improvement and cultural transformation isn't identifying the problems. It's execution: implementing and sustaining the solutions. Until there is authentic respect for the people, there will not be authentic buy-in to the Lean initiative and the gains will not be sustained. Blue-Collar Kaizen is a resource for anyone in any position who is, or will be, leading a team through process improvement and change. This book will help you take the lead in creating a meaningful, and sustainable kaizen culture one kaizen team at a time. Learn to engage, empower, and encourage your team for long term buy-in and sustained gains. Learn what it means to truly have authentic "respect for the people." The people will always know if there is authentic respect. Not because they hear it, but because they feel it. Mack Story has over 11,000 hours of experience leading hundreds of leaders and thousands of their cross-functional kaizen team members through process improvement, organizational change, and cultural transformation.
