Because if a parakeet can do it, it's not really worth the trouble

Everyone claims to have an off-the-shelf Lean Enterprise training program, but let's face it, 'lean thinking" didn't evolve in the classroom. It was originally an organic approach to problem solving used at Toyota in the aftermath of World War II. Therefore, LEAN is not a specific toolkit or stand-alone course at Leahey Consulting Group. It has to be customized for specific client demands. If you've read our Six Sigma approach, you'll recognize that we won't be plying Lean manufacturing tools in a transactional environment. Too many programs force fit heavy industry tools in service environments which is a needless waste of time.

Why Chess and Not "Go Fish"
