nach der Bestellung gedruckt Neuware - Printed after ordering - The sixth volume of Bob Emiliani's acclaimed REAL LEAN book series goes where few Lean books dare.The book opens with a an exclusive, candid interview with legendary CEO Art Byrne (Wiremold, Danaher) who reflects on nearly three decades of Lean practice, including why so few executives become genuine Lean leaders.The author then analyzes more than a dozen problems: neglect of the 'Respect for People' principle, the absence of economists who understand flow, the political misuse of Lean ('Leanpolitik'), the Curse of the Change Agent, and the inadvertent harm caused by zero-sum implementations, among others.If you're tired of recycled tool-talk and ready to confront what's really holding Lean back, this is your guide to the next frontier of progressive management.Each chapter delivers blunt diagnosis and practical countermeasures.

REAL LEAN (Volume Six) closes the series by turning a bright, unflinching light on the major problems the Lean community has failed to solve, and offering creative, original countermeasures. It opens with a candid contribution from Art Byrne, the former CEO who led The Wiremold Company's celebrated transformation, reflecting on nearly 30 years of practice and why, despite soaring awareness of Lean, real Lean leaders remain so rare. From there the book diagnoses the field's persistent, self-inflicted failures with characteristic directness.
This book helps readers by:
- Learning From a Master Practitioner. Art Byrne's reflections and a set of reader-contributed problems explain why Lean leadership remains rare despite widespread awareness.
- Exposing the Field's Blind Spots. Diagnoses the flawed reasoning and selective perception that keep Lean practitioners from seeing their own failures.
- Naming Lean's Corruptions. Exposes how Lean degrades in practice, via delegated gemba walks, distorted tools, and the office politics that hollow out "Respect for People."
- Confronting the Zero-Sum Trap. Explains how zero-sum thinking and unintended harm betray Lean's non-zero-sum core.
- Situating Lean in a Bigger Picture. Connects Lean to economics, politics, and the long history of progressive management.
- Sustaining Change Against the Odds. Address why change agents burn out and how to keep genuine, thinking-driven Lean aloft.
Direct, original, and unafraid to name what others avoid, this final volume gives the Lean community its unfinished agenda – the problems that most need work – along with practical, creative ways forward. For serious practitioners, leaders, and scholars, Volume Six is both a fitting capstone to the REAL LEAN series and a challenge to finally solve what the field has long left unsolved.
