Keen to Be Lean – CFO Magazine – December 2009 Issue – CFO.com
I'll share the above link with a little commentary, for now, a nice overview of Lean Healthcare for CFO Magazine. I helped the writer with research and ended up being quoted a few times. No misquoting, defect-free!
There are mentions of several great Lean organizations, including ThedaCare and Denver Health. Our friend Bob Emiliani was quoted, too.
I think the article did a nice job of focusing on quality and employee engagement and not using Lean as a layoff-based cost-cutting strategy (surprising for a magazine for Chief Financial Officers?).
Thoughts on the article? Reactions?
If you’re working to build a culture where people feel safe to speak up, solve problems, and improve every day, I’d be glad to help. Let’s talk about how to strengthen Psychological Safety and Continuous Improvement in your organization.
