Considering Lean, Check out this Lean Journey

Jim Lewis was the guest on the Business901 Podcast and the last half of the podcast was a Lean Transformation in itself. It is one of the best 15 minutes that I have hosted (the 1st half is not that bad). Our discussion centered on how to begin with Lean and the development of a Value Stream Mapping process. Jim is an authority in the Lean business philosophy and is one of the principals of The Center for Lean Learning, LLC. The Center is dedicated to working with business and industry to develop and implement a strategy for improving productivity and cost containment, both of which are crucial for profitability, especially during the current economic downturn.

Lewis has been championing the Lean business philosophy as an industry consultant since 1992. He has thirty-five years experience in operations management, engineering, and Lean transformation facilitation in a variety of industry environments including printed circuit boards, plastics, automotive, foundry, metal fabrication, furniture manufacturing, packaging, and visual merchandising. His experience and expertise will ensure a successful transition to Lean at your business and help position your company as a key player in the global marketplace. Jim is a contributing editor for a trade publication and the author of Learn to be Lean, and Story of a Lean Journey

P.S. If Jim is ever looking for a job he should be a Radio host. A great voice.
