{"product_id":"9781498746038","title":"Focus and Leverage : The Critical Methodology for Theory of Constraints, Lean, and Six Sigma (TLS)","description":"\u003cp\u003eMost books about continuous and process improvement are written in a textbook format with straightforward information and plenty of graphs and charts to convey the points being made. Sometimes, even the best step-by-step instructions can escape even the most adamant of followers for an improvement method in determining exactly how to apply what they've learned.\n\u003cbr\u003eTaking a different approach, Focus and Leverage is presented in an engaging business-novel format and is a sequel to the authors' bestselling book, Epiphanized, Second Edition. The primary characters remain the same, but this time the storyline features two different industries: Maintenance, Repair, and Overhaul (MRO) and Healthcare (hospital) environments.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThis book expands and highlights the two improvement methods first introduced in the appendix section of Epiphanized: the Interference Diagram (ID)\/Intermediate Objectives (IO) map (ID\/IO Simplified Strategy) and Multiple-Drum-Buffer-Rope (M-DBR).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eBoth of these innovative methods are the result of some much-focused thinking that allows for multiple improvement methods, and steps, to be combined into a single thinking process tool. This groundbreaking new method is designed to save time and money and allows faster and better results to be achieved.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe two storylines move the reader through the necessary system analysis, problem identification, and solution implementation. The novel format aids in presenting several realistic situational discussions as well as a multitude of graphs and figures to explain the step-by-step process for success.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe storyline of this book weaves some well-known and some not-so-well-known thinking tools into the problem-solving sphere to provide you with an understanding of how to first discover and then overcome issues not readily known or expected at the start of any project.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Productivity Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52375420436791,"sku":"00000_00000_00000_00000","price":314.18,"currency_code":"MYR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0962\/3548\/7543\/files\/9781498746038-1.jpg?v=1783212263","url":"https:\/\/kinokuniya.com.my\/products\/9781498746038","provider":"Books Kinokuniya Malaysia","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
