Reviews

“It provides the reader all the tools, metrics, measures required to be put into practice straight away. It is very detailed and at the same time practical, it is the best book I have read so far on this subject. I would definitely recommend the ‘Handbook on Continuous Improvement Transformation’ and like me, I hope it helps you on your process transformation journeys.” (Inside Business, Vol. 2 (5), April, 2015)
