Most books about Toyota's approach to workplace improvement describe Toyota's practices as case studies or stories. Designed to aid in the implementation of Lean manufacturing from a management perspective, this book presents a new way of exploring Toyota's management system-one that integrates systems thinking with Lean implementation. It explains that most organizations already have what it takes to succeed with TPS. What's usually missing is balance. This book supplies a blueprint for understanding how to put the TPS pieces together to achieve that balance.
