Extending Lean for
Knowledge Work:
A Retrospective

During 2004-2014, we helped many non-manufacturing and knowledge-intensive organizations that wanted to improve execution and become Learning Organizations. This white paper discusses how we extended Toyota’s Lean for this purpose and reviews some lessons learned. These lessons helped shape our later work on Post-Lean and post-industrial management thinking.
