What Great Thinkers were the
Toyodas and Team!
VERSIÓN EN ESPAÑOL
We know this already… every activity in the
TPS-Toyota Production System which is the Father of Lean Manufacturing, gravitates on Two Key Concepts or
Pillars.
These are very Easy to
understand:

Just in Time and Quality
at the Source
These two ideas were brought together not only by
Toyota, but all the other Japanese auto-makers. It would have been impossible without these two concepts, for
them to bring their products to America and the rest of the World with such success, with the top quality and
competitive prices. Today it is practically impossible to see a working plant of any kind where there is not at
least some level of Lean Implementation.
These two magnificent principles apply to any
activity we can think of. Just a little imagination and we will discover that whatever the process or type of
work, if we assure the timeliness of supplies and completion, and each individual within the action is
knowledgeable and responsible for the quality of the results, the success is the only expected
outcome.
The combination of these is a very strong system
that will keep working for Centuries, no doubt. When my customers, who already have made many improvements and
enjoyed the results, ask me…
What is Next!
My answer is:
Keep these two concepts
in continuous growth
Take them to the optimal
expression that you can think of
Educate and train your
teams every single day
Develop the leadership
to sustain that growth
Optimize the
empowerment
Develop the Leadership
Skills
NONE of the Above has a
Limit!
It is unbelievable how the detection of new
opportunities turns easier all the time, as you get everyone involved in a new higher level of accountability
and participation in the Thinking Process of your Organization. This is a mandatory process for everyone who has
survived the violent transition and wants to keep succeeding in the years to come.

teams keep developing the spirit of progress, which has No END!
