| Summary |
The organizational principles of Shigeo Shingo have been the foundation of an international revolution towards enterprise excellence. His efforts with the Toyota Production System transformed productivity, quality, and customer focus. The Shingo Model is not an additional program or another initiative to implement; rather, it introduces Shingo Guiding Principles on which to anchor your current initiatives and to fill the gaps in your efforts towards ideal results and enterprise excellence. This book introduces the concept of "enterprise alignment," which is founded on the principles of "create consistency of purpose," "think systemically," and "create value for the customer." |

He has published papers on Lean Thinking in various journals and in 2017 co-authored the widely acclaimed book 4+1 Embedding a Culture of Continuous Improvement in Financial Services, which is based on a case study from a Shingo Medallion recipient team at the Commonwealth Bank of Australia, as well as the approach taken at the Bank of New York Mellon.
