    A Quick, Easy Read Full of Practical Examples to Aid Understanding

    After reading "The Elegant Process" thoroughly in under 2 hours, I was left to wonder where a book like this has been all my life. If you seek a simple, easy to understand primer on process improvement, this is the book you need. For those of us working in process improvement with all of it's associated lingo, "The Elegant Process" is a breath of fresh air. With its practical real-life examples, most readers could effectively initiate an improvement effort almost immediately. Mr. Kilgore explains process improvement "elegantly" in that neither buzz words and phases are used nor are lengthy, complicated explanations that leave many PI participants running for the nearest door. Instead, through every day situations ranging from going to the grocery store to making home improvements, the author informs and educates by offering the reader easily understood examples. For those of us challenged to help individuals closest to the work make real and lasting improvements, this is a welcome addition to the literature that should be a pre-requisite to any improvement effort.

    This book soars and brings the reader along for the ride.

    An excellent source of information for the business-minded person who wants to be on the cutting edge of business processes.

    A wonderful and thought-provoking display of how real life experiences can and do influence the business community.

    This book crosses the boundary (is there really one?) between the business community and our individual lives as the steps, processe, and recommendations can be implemented in business and real life.

    Valuable Insights to Improve Your Business!

    With interesting illustrations and clear graphics, this guide "guides" you to uncover those resource-wasting and costly procedures that eat your profits and frustrate your people.

    If you've heard about Six Sigma and Lean, but they seem beyond your grasp, this book speaks your language. An expert in those areas, Mr. Kilgore makes the principles relevant to your business and your life!
