A new article from the excellent blog at Gemba Research's web site, talking about the Toyota 7 (8? 9? 10?) Wastes. I've heard some people at my company talk about an 8th waste, not fully utilizing people's talents. Either way, it's easier to show people a list of types of waste than it is to teach them to truly see that waste (and act to change it).
