Description This book shows what "respect for people" means for Toyota and how a culture of continuous improvement rises over this principle. What if I told you Operational Excellence is not about learning and applying, but unlearning and abandoning? One-size-fits-all strategies, management, and production systems try to impose their behavioral codes. The results could only be perfect if employees were machines that worked according to preloaded software. However, people act by their feelings. They feel depending on how they think and think according to their desires and beliefs. Systems often ignore humans and try to drive their behavior. But to realize the true potential, we must understand the human condition and utilize the non-productive energy that cannot be visualized and eliminated by systems like Lean and 6-Sigma. If systems cannot measure the problems they create, they cannot reach excellence. Developing a Toyota like culture takes decades. Still, there is a way. You don't need to learn anything new for Operational Excellence. It is all about avoiding mistakes. Most managers have similar goals, make similar mistakes, fail, and learn the same things. With the unique combination of Western Philosophy, psychology, and neuroscience, this book decodes the secrets of Operational Excellence based on the experience of a former Toyota General Manager who learned TPS in Japan and successfully implemented it in multiple automotive OEMs. Instead of telling what to do to achieve probable success, I decrypt what not to do to avoid guaranteed failures. If the only source of knowledge is experience as Einstein put it, this book can save you many years of trial and error and common failures. Reviews "5S was once 4S, we added sustain to cope with cultural differences surrounding discipline. The 8 wastes were once the 7 wastes, we added the 8th to cope with cultural differences surrounding respect for humanity. These are both excellent examples of how we often detract from wisdom by adding to it. Thinking we can improve things we don't yet understand has led people down the wrong path for time immemorial. Early in this book, Levent Turk grabs this error in thinking and nails it to the wall with this line; Human potential is not something we need to unleash, but rather, something we frequently block... the rest of the book just gets better from that point forward. The author's firsthand training in Toyota, Japan, senior leadership positions in Toyota over 15 years, and 12 years' experience implementing TPS into non-Toyota production environments provides this book with solid foundations. If this were the book we'd inherited in the 90s, maybe we would now be surrounded by leaders who realise a high-performance culture is more to do with their own beliefs in what good looks like and the conditions they create for human brains to survive in ... and not about training tools and tracking KPIs. What others take a whole book to say, Levent Turk captures in a single paragraph or sentence. This is a book of a 1000 books. If you are in a leadership position and want to create a high-performance culture, do yourself a favour. Hang onto every word, ponder every page, digest, understand, reflect. You will not find a better way to spend your time." David Bovis "Levent Turk has written a remarkable book, one that is truly unique in the genre of TPS and Lean. More than a reflection of a lifetime in business, it is a synthesis of ideas woven into a rich tapestry of valuable insights that readers will enjoy reflecting on and putting into action." Professor Bob Emiliani

In the corridors of corporate history, the Toyota Way is more than just a chapter; it's a testament to the art and science of exceptional management. It's a philosophy rooted in the pursuit of perfection, an unyielding commitment to efficiency, quality, and innovation. But it's not merely a set of principles etched in stone; it's a living, breathing philosophy that has adapted to changing times while holding steadfast to its core values. As we embark on this journey, prepare to uncover the secrets behind Toyota's unmatched success, the principles that have catapulted it to the zenith of operational excellence. From the relentless pursuit of continuous improvement to a profound respect for people, from a visionary long-term outlook to the relentless quest for value stream perfection, these principles are not just the building blocks of a successful automotive company. They are the cornerstones of a management philosophy that has reverberated far beyond Toyota's factories, influencing industries as diverse as healthcare, aerospace, and manufacturing. We will trace the genesis of the Toyota Way back to its roots, unveiling the cultural and historical contexts that shaped it. We will explore the profound influence of visionaries like Sakichi Toyoda and Kiichiro Toyoda, who sowed the seeds of this philosophy. We will delve into the principles of Jidoka and Poka-Yoke, introduced by Sakichi Toyoda, which laid the foundation for the Toyota Production System (TPS) – a linchpin of the Toyota Way. But this journey is not merely about the past; it's about the present and the future. We will examine how the Toyota Way continues to evolve and shape contemporary business practices, how it has transcended borders, how it resonates with the ever-essential values of employee engagement, customer-centricity, and quality. As we traverse the chapters of this book, be prepared for revelations that will inspire your approach to management, challenge your notions of excellence, and leave you with profound insights into what it takes to excel in the complex and dynamic world of business. The Toyota Way is not just a philosophy; it's a blueprint for excellence, a roadmap to enduring success. So, let's embark on this odyssey, guided by the principles that have made Toyota an icon of operational brilliance. Welcome to "The Toyota Way." Chapter One Introduction to the Toyota Way Chapter Two The Core Principles of the Toyota Way Chapter Three Continuous Improvement The Kaizen Philosophy Chapter Four Cultivating Respect for People Chapter Five Embracing Long-Term Thinking Chapter Six Streamlining Processes through Value Stream Mapping Chapter Seven Standardization and Simplification for Quality Chapter Eight Excellence in Inventory Management Just-in-Time Production Chapter Nine Building Quality into the Process The Built-in Quality Approach Chapter Ten Fostering Continuous Learning and Development Chapter Eleven Impact and Global Adoption Chapter Twelve Conclusion: The Enduring Legacy of the Toyota Way

As industrial companies are placing a higher focus on operations, this book comes at the right time with a compilation of basic concepts of Operational Excellence and their application.
