		<description>Amen, brother.  Lean, when done well, works everywhere, and it would be difficult to dispute the results we have seen in nearly every business sector.  Now, if we can get the healthcare industry moving a little faster toward the recognition that Lean and other improvement methods not only work, but are necessary to affordable and accessable care for all, it will benefit each and every one of us.</description>

		<description>Great post Mark!  The 60% number worries me a little because it seems like a lot of the companies that practice lean are just really using the tools associated with lean without the culture changes.  Hopefully these changes won&#039;t be short lived.
