Lean Management: Following the Toyota way in Pharma Industry

Lean is a multi-faceted framework that allows organisations to exercise different initiatives simultaneously in many dimensions; some consider effective execution either by achieving major strategic components of lean, introducing practises to support organisational aspects, or presenting proof that changes are long-term sustainable. Lean thinking starts with waste being pushed out so that all work adds value and meets the needs of the consumer. In any method, defining value-added and non-value-added steps is the beginning of the journey towards lean operations.
