Sustainable lean transformation efforts require intentional execution of leadership and culture development.  Front line managers and the work teams that add value (i.e. where the work is done) need the "soft" skills to give and take feedback. Continous improvement efforts need constant feedback supported by Plan Do Check Act do loops.
