Description
Contents
While most companies often have a disintegrated approach toward lean and green, this book it shows the synergies between them. It provides case studies that show how leading companies have been successful in the symbiosis of lean and green. The authors demonstrate how companies can adopt a systematic approach to become lean and green, how to develop their own roadmap for improvement and how to use the cutting edge tools, techniques and methodologies developed by the authors.
