Simple Guide to understand lean house in phiposophy and practice
It's just a simple guiding book for lean! It summarises all what you need to know about lean philosophy and application through well-explained lean house. The book explains in detail each element of the lean house including the philosophy behind each concept/tools and how & when to implement it in thorough description associated with real examples and templates. Although the title of the book sounds like a reference for lean beginners, I found it still valuable also for lean practitioners and experts. The book brings a lot of valued insights about lean principles and practices from Toyota where the book's author worked for years.

Good for Teams and Leaders both
This is an excellent book for understanding Lean Production in general. It is thorough enough that even someone who does not pursue Lean personally can still understand and be part of a Lean Environment.

It does what it says on the tin
Easy to read and understand with only basic maths skills needed to understand the quantitative side of the book. Author explains in plain english and there is also a glossary of terms for easy reference. Well worth the investment and better than an on-line course on Lean which can cost you couple of hundred pounds.
