Summary

"Lean Project Execution" presents a systematic approach to project management, integrating lean principles to eliminate waste and maximize efficiency throughout the project lifecycle. It focuses on identifying and eliminating waste, optimizing workflow, and fostering continuous improvement, or Kaizen, much like the Toyota Production System it evolved from. The book argues that lean project execution is a holistic management philosophy that requires a cultural shift towards collaboration and a focus on customer value.

 
The book introduces the five core principles of lean, from identifying value to seeking perfection, and uses real-world examples to illustrate successful implementation in various industries. It emphasizes the importance of streamlining processes to minimize delays and maximize value delivery. By integrating insights from operations management, supply chain management, and organizational behavior, the book offers a holistic perspective on project execution.

 
Structured in three parts, the book first introduces lean thinking, then details the application of lean tools and techniques through the project lifecycle, and finally focuses on sustaining improvements and fostering a culture of continuous improvement. This approach provides a comprehensive understanding of lean project execution, from foundational principles to real-world implementation, supporting its concepts with academic research, industry best practices, and practical case studies.

    Greed. Exploitation. And so many fees. All hiding in plain sight. That’s your financial advisor. Whose services and advice have become the outdated VHS player of retirement. In Fire Your Financial Advisor: 40 Years of Greed and Exploitation of the American Retiree, and How You Can Fight Back, Greg Aler tells the story of how the financial industry created a trillion-dollar empire by withholding information while over-charging and under-servicing retirees regarding the real risks of retirement. Greg then introduces the Retirement Planner. This is a new guide who was built to replace the financial advisor and address the four largest risks in retirement today: IRA taxes, market risk, fees, and the skyrocketing costs of long-term care. No longer is retirement just about picking investments. Fire Your Financial Advisor shows that if you want to ensure your life savings are protected, you need a new guide for this new world of retirement.

    A riveting exposé of medical debt collection in America—and the profound financial and physical costs eroding patient trust in medicine 
 
 
 
For the crime of falling sick without wealth, Americans today face lawsuits, wage garnishment, home foreclosure, and even jail time. 
 
 
 
Yet who really profits from aggressive medical debt collection? And how does this predatory system affect patients and doctors responsible for their care? 
 
 
 
Your Money or Your Life reveals how medical debt collection became a multi-billion-dollar industry and how everyday Americans are made to pay the price. Emergency physician and historian Luke Messac weaves patient stories into a history of law, finance, and medicine to show how debt and debt collection are destroying the foundational trust between doctors and patients at the heart of American healthcare. The fight to stop aggressive collection tactics has brought together people from all corners of the political spectrum. But if we want to better protect the sick from financial ruin, we have to understand how we got here. 
 
 
 
With wit and clarity, Your Money or Your Life asks us all to rethink the purpose of our modern healthcare system and consider whom it truly serves.

    We live in a competition loving culture. We love the performance, the big win, the ticking seconds of the clock as the game comes down to the wire. We watch games and cheer, sometimes to the point of obsession, but if we really wanted to see greatness—wanted to cheer for it, see it happen, understand what made it happen—we'd spend our time watching, obsessing on, and maybe even cheering the practices instead. This book puts practice on the front burner of all who seek to instill talent and achievement in others as well as in themselves. This is a journey to understand that practice, not games, makes champions. 
 
 
 
In this book, the authors engage the dream of better, both in fields and endeavors where participants know they should practice and also in those where many do not yet recognize the transformative power of practice. And it's not just whether you practice. How you practice may be a true competitive advantage. Deliberately engineered and designed practice can revolutionize our most important endeavors. The clear set of rules presented in Practice Perfect will make us better in virtually every performance of life. The "how-to" rules of practice cover such topics as rethinking practice, modeling excellent practice, using feedback, creating a culture of practice, making new skills stick, and hiring for practice.
