Repetitive and badly translated

Each chapter is a separate article or blog post about Lean and/or Kanban, clearly originally written in another (very different) language. Given the terrible and inconsistent word choices made throughout, it appears to have been run through an automated translation program and printed as-is. The narrator does a decent job of enunciating the extremely repetitive and almost unintelligible result.

not suitable for audio. useless without samples

sounds like bunch of articles but not like methodology for implementing Kanban. pdf with samples should be provided.

Mixed feelings

I did like the kai-zen part about continuous improvement, but kanban part was very repetitive (like 6+ times giving definition of kanban in slightly different words) and a too thin (i think the same lan be said in less words). But maybe it is good for management book.

Difficult following, poor translation

I was really looking forward to this book and enthusiastic about the content, but overall had a difficult time following it. I received a few good pointers from the book, but not much. If you are looking to learn kanban I would recommend a different book given the awkward word choice in this book that made it hard to follow.

horrible quality, thin story

Horrible quality of recording, thin storyline. You would be better off getting another title on the subject.

One of the best

I have to admit that when I started reading this book my first thought was that this is not very applicable to the businesses I am in or the businesses I want to be involved in. However, after internalizing what I had read links between the topics and my daily challenges became very clear. I have to say that this book changed the way I think about certain things and codified the way I do others. If you are an entrepreneur this audio book is perfect choice

Points important things about building

It organizes the basic concepts about agile product development and who to set business strategy. The pivot concept is quite accurate and it helps technicians to understand why business value is also important for success - I came from a technical background and it is really common to find people that only things about the product, the core technology inside it, but never cares about the business so for me, this book makes sense totally.

Good details.

I had pretty much no idea about how I should be running my own business as effectively as possible. this bundle provides some innovative tips, methods and solutions for some common problems in running a business of your own, logical thinking and logistics together into one neat package, great collection of book as a one point reference.

Simple and straightforward

The writing is simple and straightforward, easy enough for almost any reader to follow. However, I highly recommend it only for people who already have a basic grasp of statistics and some previous knowledge of business management. Having access to this book is like having a mentor with you throughout your improvement project.

Practical guide!

This book offers points that will help us recognize the how to keep the business running right and how to improve upon its functionality. Using the six sigma standards, we will be ensured that the manufacturing process in the workplace are consistent and the risks are just minimal.

A poorly translated pile of ads

This has some useful points, but is generally just an advocation of Kanban, rather than an explaination of how to use it.
It also has several chapters which are just adverts for trello and other apps.

It feels like a waste of money.
