There is lots to read, but I think the following images summarise the key points for success. These being the 5 S to achieve success and the 8 W (wastes) which we should seek to minimise or avoid.
We all know how being organised and having everything in its place makes a big difference to getting things done. Being more efficient and effective makes us happier, healthier and wealthier.
We all groan at the extra or unproductive work, stock, paper etc., that is used but adds no value. Working on reducing the 8 wastes will reduce this, and increase profit!
