"Author of Sense and Respond"
It is not often I come across a book that has something new to say on the subject of Lean and change strategy but this book has a wealth of practical ideas.
It's a usable and insightful book on the subject of creating a lean enterprise. It's simply the best book on lean strategy you can buy. That's why I keep this book close at hand when I am working on Lean transformations.

"khmarks"
"Transforming Strategy into Success" is a practical and direct guide on how to think about applying lean enterprise, which I used to think about for manufacturing, to business systems for process and profit improvement. Reb and the team have done a great job of bringing the topic together and making it useful. I recommend it! Kenneth H Marks
