Here at the edges of Lean, I love to talk with people who have taken Lean thinking into spaces far from the shop floor. Tirrell Payton is a lean thinker bringing lean to pharmaceutical marketing – a highly regulated, people-focused business area and one of the places where people are very likely to say, “You can’t do lean here!”. He joined me at the Edges of Lean to discuss why and how he does it.
