Book The Cambridge International Handbook of Lean Production

Download or read book The Cambridge International Handbook of Lean Production written by Thomas Janoski and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2021-03-11 with total page 890 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This handbook focuses on two sides of the lean production debate that rarely interact. On the one hand, management and industrial engineering scholars have presented a positive view of lean production as the epitome of efficiency and quality. On the other hand, sociology, industrial relations, and labor relations scholars focus on work speedups, management by stress, trade union positions, and self-exploitation in lean teams. The editors of this volume understand the merits of both views and present them accordingly, bridging the gaps among five disciplines and presenting the best of each perspective. Chapters by internationally acclaimed authors examine the positive, negative and neutral possible effects of lean, providing a global view of lean production while adjusting lean to the cultural and political contexts of different nation-states. As the first multi-lens view of lean production from academic and consultant perspectives, this volume charts a way forward in the world of work and management in our global economy.

Book Lead With Respect

Download or read book Lead With Respect written by Michael Ballé and published by Lean Enterprise Institute. This book was released on 2014-07-28 with total page 246 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Lead With Respect is a terrific book that puts the elements of genuine motivation into a broader context and helps leaders translate those principles into action." —Daniel H. Pink, author of To Sell Is Human and Drive "The Ballé books are a great way to get started or to speed up your pace of transformation, personal and organizational." —Jim Womack, Founder of Lean Enterprise Institute In their new business novel Lead With Respect, authors Michael and Freddy Ballé reveal the true power of lean: developing people through a rigorous application of proven tools and methods. And, in the process, creating the only sustainable source of competitive advantage—a culture of continuous improvement. In this engaging and insightful story, CEO Jane Delaney of Southcape Software discovers from her sensei Andy Ward that learning to lead with respect enables her to help people improve every day. “For us, lean is all about challenging yourself and each other to find the right problems, and working hard every day to engage people in solving them,” he says. Lead With Respect’s timely message brings a new understanding of lean. While lean has become essential for companies to compete in today’s global economy, most practitioners see it as a rigorous focus on process to produce higher quality goods and services—a limited understanding that fails to realize the true power of this approach. This new novel by the Ballés, the third in a series that includes Shingo Research Award-winners The Gold Mine and The Lean Manager, breaks new ground by sharing huge amounts of practical information on the most important yet least understood aspect of lean management: how to develop people through a rigorous application of lean tools. You’ll learn: How to apply Lead With Respect attitudes to the lean tools you are using now so that you develop a truly sustainable lean culture.What specific steps to follow to make lean leadership behaviors daily habits.How to manage with respect through the emotion, conflict, tension, and self-doubt that you’ll face during a lean transformation.

Book Ma  trise des co  ts en restauration collective

Download or read book Ma trise des co ts en restauration collective written by POINTET Isabelle and published by Lavoisier. This book was released on 2013-09-01 with total page 250 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Maîtriser les coûts est essentiel pour assurer la rentabilité et la pérennité d'une entreprise. S'il est un domaine où la maîtrise des coûts n'est pas chose aisée, c'est bien celui de la restauration collective : le prix des produits est un élément décisif, les budgets dévolus à la nourriture sont strictement encadrés, et ce secteur en forte croissance est en proie à d'importantes pressions avec notamment la prise de conscience des problématiques de l'alimentation. L’enjeu est donc double : les entreprises de restauration collective doivent s'adapter aux spécificités de leurs clients, tout en respectant les nouvelles recommandations en termes de nutrition. La maîtrise des coûts suppose alors une gestion quotidienne rigoureuse et le recours à des outils mathématiques afin de prévoir, d'anticiper et de comparer, amenant ainsi les entreprises à édicter des règles très strictes en la matière. Cet ouvrage pratique et didactique a pour principal objectif d'aider les professionnels de la restauration collective à mettre en place des outils simples et efficaces de gestion des coûts. Sont étudiées et passées en revue de façon très précise et concise les différentes étapes à maîtriser impérativement telles que les notions de base, la négociation des contrats, l'élaboration des menus, la prise de commandes, l'approvisionnement, la production, la distribution et les services supports. Enfin, une analyse critique des méthodes abordées dans l'ouvrage est proposée. Maîtrise des coûts en restauration collective s’adresse non seulement à toutes les entreprises, quelle que soit leur taille, proposant un service de restauration collective, mais également à tous les professionnels concernés par cette thématique tels que les industries agroalimentaires et les collectivités locales.

Book Lean In

Download or read book Lean In written by Sheryl Sandberg and published by Knopf. This book was released on 2013-03-11 with total page 241 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: #1 INTERNATIONAL BESTSELLER • “A landmark manifesto" (The New York Times) that's a revelatory, inspiring call to action and a blueprint for individual growth that will empower women around the world to achieve their full potential. In her famed TED talk, Sheryl Sandberg described how women unintentionally hold themselves back in their careers. Her talk, which has been viewed more than eleven million times, encouraged women to “sit at the table,” seek challenges, take risks, and pursue their goals with gusto. Lean In continues that conversation, combining personal anecdotes, hard data, and compelling research to change the conversation from what women can’t do to what they can. Sandberg, COO of Meta (previously called Facebook) from 2008-2022, provides practical advice on negotiation techniques, mentorship, and building a satisfying career. She describes specific steps women can take to combine professional achievement with personal fulfillment, and demonstrates how men can benefit by supporting women both in the workplace and at home.
