Rath & Strong recently published a new, easy-to-carry guide to lean implementations. Rath & Strong’s Lean Pocket Guide (Charlene Adair, Rath & Strong, 2006) includes concise, easily accessible, practical instruction for understanding lean and implementing improvement projects. It provides short descriptions of commonly used tools and breaks down the methodology as it applies to product, service and transactional processes. An index makes finding topics in the guide easy and quick. The guide weighs four ounces and easily fits in a pocket, purse or briefcase.

“This is a lean approach to getting meaningful results fast with lean,” says Charlene Adair, a Rath & Strong senior associate and the author of the guide. “Now there’s a practical, time-saving guide to lean in our famous format that will make our clients and the lean market very happy.”
