Wrong. You can apply lean principles and tools such as visual management, flow, pull, 5S, and kaizen to your individual work to improve efficiency, reduce waste, and link yourself ever more closely to customer value. While it's true that applying lean at the individual level won't lead to an overnight revolution in corporate performance, it can lead to success stories that can get your leadership to sit up and pay attention. Guest presenter Dan Markovitz will share specific strategies from his new book, A Factory of One, that will help you use lean principles to make yourself and your teams more effective—whether or not leadership gets it.

To be effective, every knowledge worker
needs to dispose of time in fairly large
chunks. To have small
dribs and drabs of time
at his disposal will not
be sufficient even if the
total is an impressive
number of hours.
