Abstract

This paper investigates planned and side effects from Lean Management implementations. Case studies from machine building industries in Europe were used as an empirical base. The focus of presented research is to provide a relevant data, that could help to explain, why the side negative effects of Lean Management implementations take place. The empirical evidence presented herein with regard to the issue, is wider than in any available publication. Also the way of analyzing effects in this paper goes beyond the existing literature.
