LeanBlog Podcast #28 features our friend and frequent guest, Norman Bodek, noted lean author, consultant, and President of PCS Press. This also celebrates the 1 year anniversary of the Podcast, which featured Norman as our first guest. As I've given him credit for previously, the Podcast really was Norman's idea when he said I should do "radio interviews" with him. Thankfully, this has turned into a series of interviews with others that I have enjoyed immensely. 
 
Summary of Norman's talk at the TWI Summit and the "pledge of continuous improvement."
Gantt's book "Organizing Work" (via Google Books) -- the stakeholder groups that a business must serve (including community)
Lifetime employment and the obligation for good management
Can you have a workplace with no bosses? Example of a Skippy peanut butter plant
Is the ultimate goal automation? Norman's thoughts on that
Managers' resistance to change as a separate type of waste?
Being on the floor all the time as a manager
Norman talking about "conscious learning" (his next book)
