Overview
Overview
Taiichi Ohno (1912-1990) is considered the father of the Toyota Production System. During nearly six decades at Toyota, Ohno-san, as he was respectfully referred to by colleagues and pupils, was the first to put management practices to work that have since become familiar in the West. Think Jidoka, Just-in-Time, Kanban and Kaizen. An industrial engineer by training, Ohno-san integrated lean principles into a system of flow and human accomplishment that encompassed Toyotaís suppliers and distributors. Ohno-san believed unwaveringly in his peopleís ability to use their intellect and mastery for the purpose of solving problems of the shop floor, the company, and society at large.

"Let the flow manage the processes, and not let management manage the flow." Taiichi Ohno
