Publisher's Summary
The missing link to long-term Lean success! Despite the fact that companies worldwide have adopted Lean production, none has sustained the same levels of excellence as Toyota. Why? Leadership. In The Toyota Way to Lean Leadership, Jeffrey Liker and Gary L. Convis, a former executive V.P. and managing officer of Toyota, help executives and senior managers get employees to refocus their efforts - from simply performing their singular function to continuously improving in collaboration across the organization.
Case studies from Toyota clearly illustrate the methods that create powerful, effective Lean leadership. Jeffrey Liker, author of the popular Toyota Way books, is the acknowledged expert on Toyota processes. He is professor of Industrial and Operations Engineering at the University of Michigan. After his executive leadership at Toyota, Gary L. Convis became the CEO of Dana Holding Corporation, a $6.1 billion supplier to the global automotive, commercial vehicle, and off-highway markets, and helped lead it to a successful turnaround from bankruptcy.

book good only for non automotive professional
Books does not talk about leadership traits at all .. It talks about meaning of word leadership at Toyota ..The meaning is that any team members can become team leader and group leaders by following and mastering routine set of activities and then optimizing those activities .. In many companies these roles are called supervisor and managers ..
The book is about operational leadership and not about business leadership or financial /market startegies.
The leaders must know work content , must have learning attitude , must have service orientation and respect for every one..
The book stresses that it is better to have mentor or guru or stenste in order to absorb Toyoda Production and leadership methods which basically have same tools like observe-learn do - master and improve ..
Write your action plan and review with visual management like A 3 sheets ..
cascade targets to win buy in by teams called Hoshin Kanri ...
Be where the action is called Gemba and then decide rather than sitting in office..
continuously try to set workplace on challenging improvements so that perfection is achieve and potential expert leaders identified ..through kaizen events ..to reduce waste and essentially increase output per men ..which in turn reduces man power ..
these are the leadership or management demonstration and implementation techniques..but as said in the book the Toyota leader is never charismatic person but a person who is doing what is taught and practiced over years .. It is about adopting Toyota Methods ..
