ABSTRACT
Changing How We Manage Lean is not just about tools. It is also a distinct management method that guides what we do as managers and how we lead our employees. Convis wrote, “Management has no more critical role than motivating and engaging large numbers of people to work together toward a common goal. Defining and explaining what that goal is, sharing a path to achieving it, motivating people to take the journey with you, and assisting them by removing obstacles-these are management’s reason for being.”1
