Actually, Toyota's innovation goes far beyond the necessary foundation that Deming laid out and many US companies ignored.

- edw519 19y agoOf course. "many US companies ignored" Kinda mind boggling, isn't it? Maybe that's another reason why startups have gained so much traction these days.
- gibsonf1 19y agoEven more mind-boggling, if logic were the standard for judging these things, is how US auto makers have ignored Toyota's management innovations and continue on their merry way into decay. Porsche adopted lean fully, and the results for them have been also quite compelling. Audi is also going lean. On the service side, Rockwell Collins has had enormous success with adopting lean for their engineering.
