Welcome to the nonprofit Lean Enterprise Institute. We publish books, workbooks, and case studies, run workshops and conferences, and conduct research that help companies transform themselves into lean enterprises, based on the principles of the Toyota Business System. We also help managers and executives develop the leadership behaviors that sustain lean enterprises.
