Proposing that corporations, like humans, have vital systems that must be cared for,
this book explains how to use Lean and Six Sigma improvement tools to monitor the
vital organs of a corporation. It provides leaders with a roadmap to plot a course
from where they are now, to where they want to be. The book describes how to formulate
effective organizational vision, mission, and values; how to foster the shared
organizational vision to succeed; and how to define strategic business objectives.
