This is the book that you want every company employee, especially the executive leaders and middle management, to read before you start your Lean/Six Sigma deployment. The authors have done an excellent job of explaining in a non-technical manner the Six Sigma problem solving methodology MAIC (Measure, Analyze, Improve, and Control) and why it is critical that it be linked to the 5S's of Lean Enterprise.
