Howdy!

We know it’s been a minute since you’ve heard from us, but we have an excellent excuse. In mid-August we were honored to host the second annual Global Lean Leadership Summit!

Our factory just about busted at the seams with the influx of new ideas, shared knowledge and more than 70 Lean business leaders from 6 countries.

We wouldn’t be doing our part of “yokoten” (“best practice sharing”) if we didn’t share with you what we learned. So for your learning pleasure, please find the summit presentations on our YouTube channel.

For a quick recap, hear from Paul Akers — of FastCap and 2 Second Lean — about how the weekend went below.

Thank you for journeying with us on the path of continuous improvement. We hope it’s added value to your lives. It’s transformed Xylem’s.

“The entire team at Xylem was so engaged…Everyone was so passionate and positive about their respective roles within the organization.  Their happiness was genuine and infectious.  What an amazing group that gets to work together, every day.  Everyone was excited to speak about their work experience and share their story of Lean, all while keeping  a genuine smile on their face as if I was doing them a favor by asking about their day.  Just wonderful!”
