Good inspiration

Revisado: 07-26-19

I found this book to be a good inspiration and really underlined why I feel so different after long runs in a nature setting as opposed to city running. Could have used a little more science but still a recommendable listen

Really funny!

Made me laugh in the middle of a flight :). Nick Offerman does great as narrator/host

Good book, annoying production

Revisado: 08-27-18

I really enjoyed the content of this book but for whatever reason, producers have decided that each contributor be named for every statement, including their recent work history. I can see why this would be done in the beginning of a book to show authenticity, but doing it every time becomes really annoying and made me lose focus on the content a couple of times

Good performance, not a great story

Revisado: 03-04-13

Would you recommend this book to a friend? Why or why not?

I would recommend this to people who find the typical Lean books diificult to understand, as the story perspective provides an interesting way of communicating the message, which could lead to better understanding.

However, as a Lean professional, I am not impressed with the quality of the story and too much of it seems to be copying of exisiting Lean material out there. I would not recommend it to my fellow Lean professionals

What was your reaction to the ending? (No spoilers please!)

I felt like all of a sudden the writer needed an ending. It did not provide a good closure to the story in my opinion

What does Kent Cassella bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

A good voice can bring life to a not so great story which is very much the case for this book

If this book were a movie would you go see it?

It would depend on the focus. If focused on the remedy, then yes. If focused on the love story, then no

Any additional comments?

I like the idea but the story could have been done better

Great listen (if you understand Lean terms)

Revisado: 02-04-13

What did you love best about The Toyota Way to Lean Leadership?

Well-narrated story about the development of Lean Leadership at TOYOTA. I especially enjoyed the continuous focus on believing that their strategy of building competences will prevail instead of adopting the usual major layoff/hiring process.

Which character – as performed by Jim Meskimen – was your favorite?

Every person who has been through the "Ohno Circle" process and not let their ego get the best of them

If you were to make a film of this book, what would be the tag line be?

Really, a movie about Lean Leadership at TOYOTA? With Brad Pitt as Gary Convis?

Any additional comments?

The one reason why i didn't give this book a 5-star rating is because of the many abbreviations and unique terms used throughout the book. I work with Lean on a daily basis and thus understand most, if not all of them, but i can definitely see some people not getting optimal value out of this book simply due to the many complicated abbreviations and terms you have to remember.
