Mark Hamel is hosting the Management Improvement Carnival #126 on the Gemba Tales blog, highlights include:
- Data and Facts Are Not the Same. Matt Wrye’s Beyond Lean blog further echos the necessity of being gemba-based.
- Are You “Under New Management” Yet? Brian Buck of Improve with Me contrasts traditional versus lean leadership practices.
- Individual vs Team Performance. TWI Blog’s Bryan Lund explores how our industrial attention deficit disorder drives the flawed belief that (short-term) heroics trump the long-term application of daily kaizen.
