Training Session 1 - Opportunity for failure

Companies that fail with Lean do so because:

  1. Lack of understanding – fall in love with the tools of Lean without understanding what Toyota Production System (Lean) really means
  2. Inconsistent implementation (ie, different set of rules for end-of-month, etc)
  3. Not tying changes with business need
  4. Too little too late
