Hangin’ with Taiichi - Update

by Ron on May 6th, 2007

As I explained a few nights ago I received my copy of “Workplace Management” by Taiichi Ohno. When I first looked at the book I was a bit surprised at how small the book looked. Normally when I see a 100 something page book I can blow through it in a hour or so. Not so with this book.

I am 2/3 of the way through the book right now. I plan to finish it in the next day or two. Let me rephrase that… I plan to finish my first pass through this book in the next day or two.

I wouldn’t say the book is hard to read. In fact it is simple to “read” in the strictest sense of the word. But the book is full of deep meaning. Deep with a capital D. I mean we are learning from the master himself so to think you are going to be able to blow through with little effort on your part is ridiculous.

Anyhow, more to come soon!
