LEAN SERVICE: A Practical Guide for SME Owner / Managers

Lean is about VALUE ... the creation, delivery and retention of value.

The most successful service businesses understand this very well and spend much time and effort working to better understand their customers and to meet their spoken needs and often unspoken wants.

LEAN SERVICE includes case studies showing how Lean Service has been applied in companies as diverse as Deutsche Post DHL, DirectSki.com, Grant Thornton, Irish Rail, Musgrave Group, Openet, Parker Advertising and Thornton Partners.
