Gemba Walks
Gemba Walks is Jim Womack’s newest book, a collection of letters and essays. It is also available as an e-book from Apple, Amazon or Amazon.co.uk or Amazon.de, Barnes & Noble, and Google.
“The life of lean is experiments. All authority for any sensei flows from experiments on the gemba [the place where work takes place], not from dogmatic interpretations of sacred texts or the few degrees of separation from the founders of the movement. In short, lean is not a religion but a daily practice of conducting experiments and accumulating knowledge.”
