Listen "Episode 50: Digitization and the Shingo Model®"
Episode Synopsis
In this engaging podcast, Dr. Peter Hines explores how digitization and the Shingo approach can work together to drive meaningful transformation—a topic gaining momentum in both industry and academia. Based on global research supported by the Shingo Institute®, Dr. Hines shares insights from over 1,000 industry responses across 66 countries. The findings reveal a lack of consistent understanding around Lean Industry 4.0 terminology and a tendency to repeat past Lean mistakes by overlooking leadership, engagement, and behavioral competencies. While Lean Industry 4.0 is often pursued for efficiency and cost savings, its long-term value depends on integrating cultural and leadership principles. Dr. Hines emphasizes that treating digitization as a purely technical initiative misses the opportunity for deeper, sustainable impact.Please click HERE for article.
