Description
Once you've implemented lean manufacturing, how do you sustain a lean culture? How do you motivate your team to focus on continuous improvement? How do you inspire them to keep reaching and passing their goals?
In this episode of MakingChips—part 2 of a live panel discussion at TSMA with special guests Doug Bawel, Femi D-Etti, and Jake Ward—we dive into what it takes to maintain a lean culture. It can be so easy to fall back into old patterns but it's important to stay the course.
Because if you can't sustain a lean culture, you won't be MakingChips efficiently, and if you're not MakingChips, you're not making money. BAM!
