On Line Introduction to Lean Thinking

"Just the overview please ... I don't have time right now".

Is this you? Is your day so jamb packed that you don't have time to do anything but fight fires? Want to make improvements, but don't know where to start? Is your company improvement process like swatting flies - one problem after another but never getting to where the flies are coming from? This is the current situation in many businesses in these tough economic times. Heard about Lean, and want to learn the concepts, but don't have the time to read a book or take a course?

Truth be known - if this describes your situation, you NEED to discover Lean Thinking! You don't have time NOT to use this tool. Because hoping things will get better will not work - it never has - it never will! ACTION is the key to change. And its very hard working ON your business while you are working IN your business.
