My guest for Episode #414 of the Lean Blog Interviews podcast is Ryan Weiss. He is president of his firm Effective Performance Strategies, based out of the Chicago area. We had a great discussion today about topics including Training Within Industry (TWI) and we chat just a little bit about BBQ (although it's not an episode of “Lean BBQ” ala “Lean Whiskey” (new episode coming Friday).

Topics, questions, and links related to today's episode include:

  • How did you get introduced to Lean?
  • Becoming a Certified Six Sigma Black Belt
  • How do you engage people? What was your epiphany on people?
  • Purpose + People + Process = Performance
  • Taxation without representation :: kaizen without participation
  • What is TWI?? How were you exposed to Training Within Industry?
  • What happens when you're promoted as a leader?
  • Explaining WHY
  • It's not just about manufacturing? 

The podcast is sponsored by Stiles Associates, now in their 30th year of business. They are the go-to Lean recruiting firm serving the manufacturing, private equity, and healthcare industries. Learn more.
