Summary -- Index.Lean Work Design comes directly from our view that lean operations results from the work design. This book uses three existing work design theories to study lean operations and to identify the principles of lean operations. First, systems theory is used to conceptualize how lean operations differ from other work designs. Second, buffer theory, which views lean as a set of buffers to protect throughput from variance, is used to more effectively manage buffers. Third, organizational information processing theory is used to understand how the lean work design processes different types of information. So, lean work design is a work design that maximizes system productivity and effectiveness while minimizing the system's buffer costs. Lean does this by achieving tighter integration of its system components by using work design methods that incorporate a systems view of the organization. Appropriate work design methods consciously seek to incorporate a systems view and coordination into the design of a production or service process. This book is not about the many tools in lean. Rather, it focuses on understanding the lean concepts and how to actively use these concepts to create structure and facilitate communication. The book introduces the fundamentals of Lean operations that are a key to creating a Lean Work Design. It provides a knowledge structure that can be adapted to the day- to-day problems encountered by managers of many different types of work systems.Supply and operations management collection.2156-8200Standard practices and tools of lean.Lean manufacturingWork designElectronic books.Leanlean manufacturinglean operationslean work designwork designLean manufacturing.Work design.658.5Fredendall Lawrence D.920119Thürer Matthias.MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910465927103321An introduction to lean work design2063972UNINA03697nam 22006972 450 991077991920332120151005020622.01-107-11860-397866104209640-511-54225-90-521-02211-80-511-17556-60-511-32536-31-280-42096-00-511-15600-60-511-04903-X(CKB)111056485625718(EBL)202435(OCoLC)228040716(SSID)ssj0000103688(PQKBManifestationID)11128121(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000103688(PQKBWorkID)10070796(PQKB)10900215(UkCbUP)CR9780511542251(Au-PeEL)EBL202435(CaPaEBR)ebr10021917(CaONFJC)MIL42096(MiAaPQ)EBC202435(PPN)261308742(EXLCZ)9911105648562571820090505d2000|||| uy| 0engur|||||||||||txtrdacontentcrdamediacrrdacarrierAnimal traditions behavioural inheritance in evolution /Eytan Avital and Eva Jablonka[electronic resource]Cambridge :Cambridge University Press,2000.1 online resource (xii, 432 pages) digital, PDF file(s)Title from publisher's bibliographic system (viewed on 05 Oct 2015).0-521-66273-7 0-511-01973-4 Includes bibliographical references (p.

Eytan Avital and Eva Jablonka contend that evolutionary explanations must take into account the well-established fact that in mammals and birds, the transfer of learnt information is both ubiquitous and indispensable. The introduction of the behavioural inheritance system into the Darwinian explanatory scheme enables the authors to offer new interpretations for common behaviours such as maternal behaviours, behavioural conflicts within families, adoption and helping. This approach offers a richer view of heredity and evolution, integrates developmental and evolutionary processes, suggests new lines for research, and provides a constructive alternative to both the selfish gene and meme views of the world. It will make stimulating reading for all those interested in evolutionary biology, sociobiology, behavioural ecology and psychology.Animal behaviorBehavior evolutionBehavior geneticsAnimal behavior.Behavior evolution.Behavior genetics.591.5Avital Eytan1951-1466211Jablonka EvaUkCbUPUkCbUPBOOK9910779919203321Animal traditions3676569UNINA
