Why It’s Important

“While Chief Executives in organizations failing to get started on a Lean transformation often tell us that the problem is a lack of good candidates to take on the challenge [of lean], we generally find instead that it’s reluctance to bring in executives who will introduce truly fundamental change.” From James P. Womack and Daniel T. Jones, Lean Thinking

“Motivation is the spark that ignites performance in human endeavor from love to sports to business to art to religion and more. Yet few people understand the dynamics of the one to the other.” From Thad Green and Merwyn Hayes, The Belief System
