But van Dijk felt something was missingthe fun factor: experiments, improvements, a supportive management style, and teamwork. He wasnt seeing the sense of invigoration and renewal that comes when employees on the shop floor experience the improvement brought on by a Lean implementation.

He went to work and created a new approachSuper7that took the Lean system in financial services to the next level. It radically reduced customer waiting times with less management and more responsibility on the shop floor. In Super7 Operations, he discusses Super7 in detailhow it was developed, what it does for customers, how it changes culture on the shop floor, and how it affects employees and managers.

output management and delegated responsibilities; and

continuous improvement of performance without the need for tight controls.
