Blog Holiday through July 4

Hi Everyone — Next week is going to be a very intense work week and my parents are visiting over the 4th of July… so I'm trying to impose a “blog holiday” through July 4th.

No pressure on Jamie or the others, but hopefully they will add a post or two in the meantime. If not, please browse through the archives using the search function (top left corner in the “blogger” menu) or browse the monthly archives (left hand column, scroll down). Or, visit the other great blogs and lean sites that I've linked to (also the left hand column).

If anyone is interested in being a guest blogger, now or in the future, please email me here. I will be checking email.

Some example archive searches:

• Standard Work
• Lean Healthcare
• Toyota
• Outsourcing
