Synopsis

This workbook is the first of its kind to document and outline the actual kaizen practices taught within the Toyota Motor Corporation to develop leadership skills and personal responsibility close to the manufacturing floor. By explaining in full context the six basic kaizen principles that govern Toyota, the authors enable readers to improve their own skills and those of their employees making full use of the kaizen approach. The text examines simple analytic methods for work elements, time, motion, production lead-time, machine losses, and standardized work.
