5 out of 5 stars A truly comprehensive and practical book........2004-12-21

I am so impressed with this book! The author covers, in a logical and integrated way, eighteen practical and immediately deployable tips and tools for the cost reduction and value enhancement of any product. I particularly love the "Twenty-Cost-Lever" tradeoff tool; we are already using this to great advantage in my division. I was also impressed with the level of detail and the very readable, step by step directions for implementing the tools. The author clearly is an experienced practitioner and understands just what the reader needs to know to achieve success. I highly recommend this book!

1 out of 5 stars Waste of My Time.......2004-12-14

I find the material to be a minimalized version of the true tools based in quality lean material. As a practicing continuous improvment specialist i expected more than I got in this trivial account of what should be considered a very important event in a corporate life cycle.
Designing products requires exceptional detail. Likewise I expect someone writing a book on the topic to provide exceptional tools and details. This book is superficial at best and points you in a direction, unfortunately it is the wrong direction.

5 out of 5 stars An Extremely Valuable Book!.......2004-09-19

This was one of the most practical and useful books I've come across for product designers and team leaders. I've already implemented several of the "lean design tools" and believe that they will make a real difference in our firm's profits. The book is comprehensive, the writing style is clear and entertaining, and the numerous graphics are interesting and helpful. I would recommend this book to anyone who is looking for some new ways to squeeze cost out of their products.

4 out of 5 stars Very Practical Book.......2007-06-18

Ron has a very laid back writing style. You can tell that he has spent a considerable amount of time in the trenches and appreciates the amount of hard work and focus it takes for a successfull product development project. I would definately recomend this book for anyone serious about wanting to add tools to their product development toolbox.

5 out of 5 stars Slashing Development Time.......2007-04-27

This is the author's second book on product development. The first one was focused primarily on cost reduction with some material about time-to-market. In this book his focus is primarily on reducing development time through focusing on the new development team processes. Ron offers some very practical advice, and a host of easy to use tools and aids that new product development teams can adapt very easily and quickly. Ron's writing style is that of a practitioner and therefore makes reading the material easy, and is made relevant to a real world environment.

His approach of adapting some traditional lean tools to the product development situation is novel. I found his version of Value Stream Mapping for example, for a basically creative process, very useful.

While this book stands on its own, if you have not read Ron's first book "The Lean Design Guidebook," doing so would give you holistic perspective on both the time and cost factors involved in the new product design process.

5 out of 5 stars Enthusiastically recommended as an overview resource and guideline for design team managers everywhere........2007-03-04

Project management professional Ronald Mascitelli presents The Lean Product Development Guidebook: Everything Your Design Team Needs to Improve Efficiency and Slash Time-to-Market, a handbook written especially for design team managers in all business fields. The focus lies upon making the product development process "lean", thereby improving both its efficiency and its effectiveness. Chapters describe how to establish product design requirements, heighten the pace of project execution, and apply self-assessment tools to keep design paradigms operating at optimal levels. The Lean Product Development Guidebook is spiral-bound, able to lay flat or be folded over on itself for easy reference, and is written in plain terms, with numerous black-and-white charts and diagrams illustrating its principles. Enthusiastically recommended as an overview resource and guideline for design team managers everywhere.

5 out of 5 stars Judy Martin, Lean Champion, Los Angeles.......2006-12-13

I just finished reading "The Lean Product Development Guidebook" and I am totally impressed with the practical tools and common sense tone of this book. The author makes the learning experience pleasant and even entertaining! Most of the two dozen "lean methods" described in the book can be used right away and will provide immediate benfits. I highly recommend this book to anyone who is serious about driving waste out of the product design process.

3 out of 5 stars Good reference but overly wordy.......2007-01-26

This is in fact a good referece for SharePoint. My biggest complaint is that it is overly wordy without adding anything. You won't be disappoint in this book; however, don't be surprized when you find yourself skipping ahead because of word dribbling.

5 out of 5 stars The best resource on SharePoint out there.......2006-12-12

Bill English's book is still the best overall resource on SharePoint in one package. I can't wait for the update for SharePoint 2007!

5 out of 5 stars Crucial documentation for SharePoint administrators.......2005-11-21

This is the book that *should* have shipped with every copy of SharePoint Portal Server 2003.

I haven't looked at the paper copy in quite some time; the searchable PDF copy of the book that comes as part of the Resource Kit CD is actually much more useful for me, because it's searchable. I refer to it constantly.

    Book Description

    In this book, consultants Sekine and Arai point out the difficulties of transforming designers from isolated, multi-project employees to team-based production-style workers. They then show how the latest production improvement tools such as U-cell design, one-piece flow, and waste elimination methods will bring out the maximum productivity from designers.

    Managers of design departments face many obstacles when trying to make changes within their department. How do you identify waste in the design process? How can bottlenecks be eliminated? How can repetition be reduced to an absolute minimum? When should a designer work from start to finish on one project and when should you employ parallel design — where the elements of a project are broken up and designed by many designers? This book offers you hands-on training for dramatically increasing the productivity of your design department. Filled with exercises, charts, Q&A, and a case study showing a company cutting its design and development time in half, it provides you the opportunity to examine how actual changes were achieved. This is not a theoretical discussion, but offers you the information, data, and tools you need to immediately start implementing improvement.

              2 out of 5 stars Curious.......2004-03-16

              Does it seem strange to anyone that all of the 26 reviews for this book sound exactly the same? Almost like the same person wrote all of the reviews.......or coached others on how to write them.....hmmm...

              5 out of 5 stars Motivational and definitely life changing.......2002-11-30

              I've ready many books on how to get the life you want but by far this is the best yet. Easy to read, there's little exercises to do to get you thinking and she even provides ideas for making more. Brilliant. If you know you're not living your best life, then this book will really get you going in the right direction with motivation. Get it!!!

              5 out of 5 stars Great Book! Very Impressive!.......2002-03-02

              I have read a lot of books on how to be successful--from these books I learned it takes hard work to make money. But what about life? Having a balanced life yet still making lots of money seems impossible--from all the reading I had so far.

              Then when I pick up this tape I was really suspicious. After I listened to the 1st tape, I absolutely LOVE it! Absolutely fantastic! I found myself talking this to myself (happily): Paraphrase: Do what you'are best at (your "brilliance") and "Laser day/support day/free day" building momentum theory, 80/20 focus phylosophy (this is not new, but it's nice to hear it from a different person again in a different way of explanation), delegate, duplicate, saying no (I said no to a meeting that does not let me focus on my brilliance--yes, I'm so happy!!!), when is enough for adding value(talking about a sincere wise phylosophy!!), free up space and time to focus on your brilliance, write journal. All in all, it confirms my own beliefs that when you have a life besides work you can sustain your brilliance better than overly working. I haven't finished the tape now, I'm on Innovation now. She said most of people think they are not innovative. But you are, everybody are. If you think you are, you are! Using a new way of doing things better, that's innovative! You don't have a dead soul...

              Some of the suggestions are not new, a few examples are not that convincing, yet, those are so minor!!! Nobody or no book/tape is perfect--this tape are exceptional!

              5 out of 5 stars The Answer.......2001-11-10

              If you keep asking yourself, how can I make more money, how can I can have more time, how can I do more things that I enjoy - then this book will give you the answer you are looking for. I have read dozens of business/career books and not until I read this book did I say to myself "Oh, of course, that is what I should do". In fact, I look at my life now as pre- and post- Work Less Make More! You should buy enough copies for all your friends and family.
