Top 10 Lean Quotes from 2022


Throughout our lifetimes many people touch our lives and leave us with words of wisdom. These can both be a source of new learning and also a point to pause and reflect upon lessons we have learned. Within Lean active learning is an important aspect on this journey because without learning we cannot improve.

10. "Employees who believe that management is concerned about them as a whole person — not just an employee — are more productive, more satisfied, more fulfilled. Satisfied employees mean satisfied customers, which leads to profitability."   —  Anne M. Mulcahy

9. "Fires can’t be made with dead embers, nor can enthusiasm be stirred by spiritless men. Enthusiasm in our daily work lightens efforts and turns even labor into pleasant tasks."   —  James A. Baldwin, author

8. "A boss creates fear, a leader confidence. A boss fixes blame, a leader corrects mistakes. A boss knows all, a leader asks questions."   —  Russel Ewing

7. "When we work for a bigger purpose, we find an endless supply of happiness at work."   —  Jon Gordon, author and motivational speaker

6. "Your number one customers are your people. Look after employees first and then customers last."   —  Ian Hutchinson

5. "Leadership is essentially another-centered activity not self-centered one."   —  John Adair

4. "You don't need a title to be a leader."   —  Mark Sanborn

3. "Transformational leadership’s potential to address issues that are relevant in the modern, changing, and uncertain work environment is the main reason for its positive influence."   —  Beng-Chong Lim & Robert E. Ployhart, 2004

2. "I will say this again: the only way to generate a profit is to improve business performance and profit through efforts to reduce cost. This is not done by making workers slave away […] or to generate a profit by pursuing low labor costs, but by using truly rational and scientific methods to eliminate waste and reduce cost."   —  Taiichi Ohno

1. "Empathy is being concerned about the human being, not just their output."   —  Simon Sinek, Author and Motivational Speaker
