Lean is NOT ...Clearing confusions
2
It is not a magic wand or silver
bullet to fix everything
It is not rocket science.
It is simple
It is not a system to reduce
headcount
It is not a diet program
It is not a solution to personnel
or performance issues
It is not only for factories.
It works everywhere
