Implementing lean can be like changing a wheel on a moving car and because of the difficulty, the temptation is to carry on running in-efficiently, until eventually you breakdown. However with help and encouragement, the wheel can be changed and the car does not have to stop and companies can realise the benefits of optimum driving conditions.
