Manufacturing Renaissance (9780875846101)



The past decade has witnessed a rebirth in the competitive landscape of manufacturing. From a global environment of rapidly changing consumer tastes and technologies, a group of aggressive and highly competent industrial competitors has emerged. No longer can companies build a manufacturing advantage around standard designs and mass production or products that contain an "acceptable percentage" of defects. Managers everywhere now share a strategic imperative to pursue "world-class" productivity, quality, and flexibility in manufacturing. Organizations cannot compete in the global marketplace without manufacturing capabilities that match or exceed those of the best in the world. In Manufacturing Renaissance, the editors have gathered 20 articles from the Harvard Business Review on manufacturing strategy and practice - all published as intense global industrial competition has forced a reexamination of many long-held beliefs about manufacturing and its role in the modern enterprise. The contributions included in this volume - beginning historically with Wickham Skinner's classic "The Focused Factory" - have profoundly influenced the theory and practice of manufacturing and will continue to guide the future transformation of manufacturing management. Manufacturing Renaissance offers lessons for developing strategic manufacturing capabilities drawn from the experiences of leading-edge companies and covers a wide range of critical issues. Peter Drucker both describes and predicts the shift of manufacturing from an isolated collection of work stations to a system integrated with the rest of the organization's functions. Robert Hayes and Kim Clark illuminate key managerial tools for increasingproductivity that are based on reducing manufacturing complexity and confusion, as well as on a commitment to organization-wide learning. Joseph Juran provides a firsthand description of the Japanese post-war quality movement, analyzes the response of American manufacturers, and

Ecclesiastes : A Participatory Study Guide (9781631997709)

Ecclesiastes: A Participatory Study Guide is the ninth volume in the Participatory Study Series and the first that is a guide to an Old Testament book. There has been much controversy about the correct approach to interpreting Ecclesiastes. Is the author clinically depressed? Should you read the book when you're down in order to find someone who can join you in your misery? Is there anything uplifting in it? There are some who have thought the book doesn't belong in the Bible at all. Russell L. Meek takes a different approach. Through a serious study of the language and of the relationship between the text and that of other Bible writers, he discovers a much more positive message. It is still a book that can help you if you're looking at the troubles and problems of the world. But it is more than a place to find a companion in misery. In its text you can find help from someone who knows the way out, who knows how a person of faith, even if that faith is tried to the break...
