Opis: The Lean Mindset - Tom Poppendieck, Mary Poppendieck

What company doesn't want energized workers, delighted customers, genuine efficiency, and breakthrough innovation? The Lean Mindset shows how lean companies really work-and how a lean mindset is the key to creating stunning products and delivering amazing services. Through cutting-edge research and case studies from leading organizations, including Spotify, Ericsson, Intuit, GE Healthcare, Pixar, CareerBuilder, and Intel, you'll discover proven patterns for developing that mindset. You'll see how to cultivate product teams that act like successful startups, create the kind of efficiency that attracts customers, and leverage the talents of bright, creative people. The Poppendiecks weave lean principles throughout this book, just as those principles must be woven throughout the fabric of your truly lean organization. Learn How To *Start with an inspiring purpose, and overcome the curse of short-term thinking *Energize teams by providing well-framed challenges, larger purposes, and a direct line of sight between their work and the achievement of those purposes *Delight customers by gaining unprecedented insight into their real needs, and building products and services that fully anticipate those needs *Achieve authentic, sustainable efficiency without layoffs, rock-bottom cost focus, or totalitarian work systems *Develop breakthrough innovations by moving beyond predictability to experimentation, beyond globalization to decentralization, beyond productivity to impact Lean approaches to software development have moved from novelty to widespread use, in large part due to the principles taught by Mary and Tom Poppendieck in their pioneering books. Now, in The Lean Mindset, the Poppendiecks take the next step, looking at a company where multidiscipline teams are expected to ask the right questions, solve the right problems, and deliver solutions that customers love.Preface ix About the Authors xi Introduction 1 Lean Is a Mindset 3 How Mindsets Work 4 The Fabric of Lean 6 Chapter 1: The Purpose of Business 11 The Rise of Rational Economics 11 Case: Who Are Our Customers? 15 The Rise of Rational Work Systems 19 Case: Working Together at Ford 23 Cooperative Work Systems 26 Case: When Workers Are Volunteers 32 Questions to Ponder 36 Chapter 2: Energized Workers 39 Full Potential 39 A Challenge That Changed the World 45 The Science of Expertise 55 When Can We Trust Intuition? 64 Questions to Ponder 69 Chapter 3: Delighted Customers 71 Ask the Right Questions 71 Solve the Right Problems 75 Design a Compelling Experience 81 Develop the Right Products 92 A Design Toolbox 96 Questions to Ponder 99 Chapter 4: Genuine Efficiency 101 What Is Efficiency? 101 Lessons in Flow: Ericsson 102 Lessons in Speed: CareerBuilder 110 Lessons in Learning: Lean Startup 115 Build the Right Thing: Spotify 119 Questions to Ponder 129 Chapter 5: Breakthrough Innovation 131 Seeing the Future 131 Focus 135 Change the Focus 141 An Innovation Checklist 155 Questions to Ponder 158 Epilogue 159 References 163 Index 169
