10 Wastes

Paul,

I just had a huge triumph it feels like. I brought this 10 wastes summary to our team meeting and initiated a discussion of how our current projects are actually targeting these various wastes. In a matter of minutes my boss was suddenly identifying these all over the place, and especially highlighting the “Untapped Creativity” one. I never expected that to happen.

It just shows, if you keep it simple, way more people can get on board the Lean Express.

Thanks, Daniel
