This month at the cafe, we’re going be talking about a tool we use every day, but completely miss its role in Process Walks.
We’ll find out what paving city roads and fixing Apache helicopter gun turrets have in common. We’ll discuss one of the books that bridged the gap between the Toyota Production System and the removal of office waste. We’ll answer one of our subscriber’s questions about the difference between Lean and Six Sigma, and this week’s special features an interview with one of the key people involved with Denver City’s success with process improvement and innovation. Grab your togo coffee mug and meet us just-in-time!
