Follow along as we hear Dr. Liker at those actual presentations, delivered first-hand to the students of Lean and Lean Practitioners.

Follow along as Dr. Liker explains the Lean Leadership development model (LLDM) and how it aligns with the accepted principles of operational excellence. Learn about the behaviors required to sustain it in the long term. Understand how leadership must walk the talk of true north. Find out how to actively engage in developing Lean Leader skills.

Not worth it

The author stumbles through the lecture... and never gives insight into Hosin Kanri. You can interchange annual planning with the Hosin Kanri, because no other insight is given. "At Toyota, they are already doing it." That is not insight.
