See http://www.leanblog.org/259 Today's episode #259 is Part 2 of a discussion I started with Steve Bera in episode #256. Steve was one of the original 16 "NUMMI Commandos" that General Motors sent to work with Toyota in the 1980s, as discussed in the outstanding book Comeback: The Fall &amp; Rise of the American Automobile Industry. In Part 1, we talked about his experience at NUMMI. Today, we talk about what happened after his two years at NUMMI, why he feared getting lost back in the regular old GM, what he's done to teach and spread Lean in various industries over the past 30 years, and other thoughts on the current state of Lean. A transcript of the discussion can be found at the bottom of the post.

Steve Bera, Reflections on NUMMI and #Lean, Part 2

See http://www.leanblog.org/256 I'm really excited to have Steve Bera as my guest for Episode 256 of the podcast. I read about him, as he was featured prominently in parts of the 1994 Pulitzer-Prize winning book Comeback: The Fall &amp; Rise of the American Automobile Industry.
