Compliments of INFOR, they are providing a free eBook to Shmula.com readers entitled: “Three Secrets to Bridging the Lean Performance Gap.” I have not read it so I’m not able to comment on it, but here’s the description:
The past year has taught executives everywhere that business will never again be business-as-usual; manufacturers, in particular, must focus more than ever on satisfying customers while removing waste and unnecessary costs from their organizations.
And they need to do so faster and better than their competitors. Bridging the Lean Performance Gap highlights how companies are doing just that by relying on strategic Lean concepts:
- Identifying a unique corporate vision (a True North, a guiding star) that articulates the value your company provides to its customers and its competitive advantages in the marketplace
- Developing specific, actionable goals and objectives at every level of the organization, linked to and guided by True North
- Regularly attaining, checking, and recalibrating goals, and continuously improving the company with the support and encouragement of robust processes and systems to manage performance
