Value Advantage of Being Lean

About the Episode

Many business owners associate the subject of “lean” strictly with manufacturers. Today, however, businesses in all industries — including service businesses — can benefit from the implementation of lean principles to eliminate waste in all areas of their operations and increase the value of their companies in the process. On this edition of “Deal Talk,” Jeff Allen speaks with Colin Baird, vice president at Sullivan-Curtis-Monroe in Los Angeles, about what lean is and why business owners need to look seriously at process improvements that can help strengthen their balance sheets while adding value to their organizations.
