- Just Hide It by Mike Wroblewski – “It is also a clear indicator that we have a long way to go on our lean journey. By hiding our problems, we create muda and more importantly we ignore the real problems.”
- Deming’s 14 Points and Home Building by Peter Abilla – “Magleby is known as the ‘home builder for billionaires.’ I find it refreshing and impressive that he would credit Deming for the quality philosophy that he has instilled in his company.”
- The War for Talent Is Back by Bob Sutton – “1 Superstars are overrated… 2 Great systems are more important than great people.”
- How to Use a Kaizen Newspaper by Jon Miller – “A full kaizen newspaper is a good thing. The fact that this is a concern might say something about the quality of the action items rather than the quantity”
