Value at National and International Levels

  • Chapter
Lean Enterprise Value

Abstract

Creating lean enterprise value at national and international levels represents a significant extension in the use of all three words: lean, enterprise, and value. Taking a lean enterprise approach to value creation is essential in addressing the challenges that are already emerging at the dawn of the 21st century — whether they involve addressing the limitations of the air traffic management system, pioneering commercial uses of space, or finding new ways to confront international terrorism. Our goal here is to foster a more intentional approach to lean enterprise value creation at national and international levels.
