So what do you think?  I know that you have heard of lean, but what’s your opinion?  I think there is a place for lean, but I agree with the statement, “once size does not fit all.”

This is not about lean, but in education, Kansas required all Collision Repair Programs to align with each other.  We all had to completely change our curriculum to fit the alignment.   Again, I think there is some value in doing this, but it kind of seems like the cookie cutter approach to me.  Any special niches or training that helped meet the needs of the local communities were washed out in the alignment.

Just like with anything, there are going to be pros and cons.  Be sure to read this article about lean that I found on ABRN then give me your opinion about lean.
