Management expert James P. Womack, Ph.D., is the founder and senior advisor to the Lean Enterprise Institute, Inc., a nonprofit training, publishing, conference, and management research company chartered in August 1997 to advance a set of ideas known as lean production and lean thinking, based initially on Toyota's business system and now being extended to an entire lean management system.

The intellectual basis for the Cambridge, MA-based Institute is described in a series of books and articles co-authored by Womack and Daniel Jones over the past 20 years. The most widely known books are: The Machine That Changed the World (Macmillan/Rawson Associates, 1990), Lean Thinking (Simon & Schuster, 1996), Lean Solutions (Simon & Schuster, 2005), and Seeing The Whole Value Stream (Lean Enterprise Institute, 2011). Articles include: "From Lean Production to the Lean Enterprise" (Harvard Business Review, March-April, 1994), "Beyond Toyota: How to Root Out Waste and Pursue Perfection" (Harvard Business Review, September-October, 1996), "Lean Consumption" (Harvard Business Review, March-April, 2005).

Womack received a B.A. in political science from the University of Chicago in 1970, a master's degree in transportation systems from Harvard in 1975, and a Ph.D. in political science from MIT in 1982 (for a dissertation on comparative industrial policy in the U.S., Germany, and Japan). During the period 1975-1991, he was a full-time research scientist at MIT directing a series of comparative studies of world manufacturing practices. As research director of MIT's International Motor Vehicle Program, Womack led the research team that coined the term "lean production" to describe Toyota's business system.

Womack served as the Institute's chairman and CEO from 1997 until 2010 when he was succeeded by John Shook.

When The Machine That Changed the World was first published in 1990, Toyota was half the size of General Motors. Today Toyota is passing GM as the world's largest auto maker and is the most consistently successful global enterprise of the past fifty years. This management classic was the first book to reveal Toyota's lean production system that is the basis for its enduring success. Now reissued with a new Foreword and Afterword, Machine contrasts two fundamentally different business systems -- lean versus mass, two very different ways of thinking about how humans work together to create value. Based on the largest and most thorough study ever undertaken of any industry -- MIT's five-year, fourteen-country International Motor Vehicle Program -- this book describes the entire managerial system of lean production. Nearly twenty years ago, Womack, Jones, and Roos provided a comprehensive description of the entire lean system. They exhaustively documented its advantages over the mass production model pioneered by General Motors and predicted that lean production would eventually triumph. Indeed, they argued that it would triumph not just in manufacturing but in every value-creating activity from health care to retail to distribution. Today The Machine That Changed the World provides enduring and essential guidance to managers and leaders in every industry seeking to transform traditional enterprises into exemplars of lean success.

《改变世界的机器》主要讲述了在汽车行业,精益生产的历史形成背景,包含的要素及扩散的方式,中间穿插了与大批量生产的对比。两种是截然不同的生产方式,前者是对后者的颠覆。在大批量生产时代,汽车总装厂以产品为主导,规模化为目的,以流水线为主要生产方式,不可避免的出...

仔细读了这本书,太赞了!! 1. 研究分析方法值得学习:这是一个学术研究的交付物,整个研究过程中方向选择,落实方法都值得学习; 2. 观点到现在也不落后:说到底,大规模生产和精益的核心差别之一在于共生集团内部各方如何对待其他共生集团内部的成员,是建立在互不信任,...

Theories of Capitalism这门课到这一周,出现了金融和实体经济运作需要分开论述的情况,因为东方出现了新型生产模式。老师本人有参与的一个项目,全面考察了1980年代末扩散至全球的日本式精益生产模式,从原料供应、产品设计、流水线管理到成品销售方面优于西方大工厂生产体系的方方面面。由于项目参与者主要是产业组织和管理专家,及业界人士,对组织管理体系方面的细节描述几乎巨细无遗,乃至统计出当时世界各大车厂的生产效率,令人咋舌。不过在政治及金融方面的implication论述较少。我比较感兴趣的是精益生产在西方落地是否会对金融和投资体系产生一定的影响,及精益生产中工会的地位,不过作者除了推介日本式财团控股和雇佣关系在保持灵活性、维持资金稳定和提高员工士气上的优点外,别无太多论述。
