What others are saying:

"Lean is not mean. It is the coming style of good management. Paul Akers explains how the system blurs the distinction - and soothes the frictions - between labor and management by enlisting the brainpower of all employees from the top to the bottom. Under Lean we are all management whether in the private or the public sector, Karl Marx would never have approved!"

~Dick Morris, author of 8 New York Times Best Sellers, Fox News political analyst

"Paul Akers has built FastCap into an industry leader and one of the most exciting manufacturing companies in America. His innovative, thoroughly American use of Lean manufacturing principles and techniques has made him a top expert who is in high demand to speak to and teach his secrets to all kinds of organizations, from factories to hospitals to office environments. On my visit to FastCap, Paul's employees showed me several examples of how they have employed the 2 Second Lean principle to save time and money - usually saving a lot more than just two seconds! I'm a believer, and have incorporated many of Paul's strategies and principles into my own office's CQI process, helping me empower and motivate more than one thousand legal professionals and support staff to save our clients and taxpayers millions of dollars."
