2. The Human Side of Lean http://www.strategosinc.com/human_side.htm The Human Side of Lean Manufacturing refers to those elements of lean and corporate culture that impact people's attitudes, their interactions with others and their interaction with the technical processes. It is important because people are part of the system and part of the process. It has taken well over twenty-five years for Lean Manufacturing to have significant impact in the United States. Even today, it can be argued that most manufacturers talk big but implement poorly. More than anything else, problems on the Human Side are responsible for this tardiness.
