The Toyota Way, Second Edition: 14 Management Principles from the World's Greatest Manufacturer (BUSINESS BOOKS)

Great product, fast delivery. Very happy!

Absolutely Brilliant, lots of great information on Standardisation and Sustain and much more

Jeff Liker has revised his best selling description of Toyota’s management system. Lots of new material and up to date material. An important guide for managers and students trying to understand the lean revolution and to draw lessons for their own organisations. An important book that will undoubtedly become a classic in time.

Good read, interesting to know where many of the manufacturing techniques come from.

Before reading this book I'd read a few snippets in other books around Toyota's Lean way of working, but this book tells a comprehensive story not only about the success behind Toyota's legendary customer-centric product development techniques along with market performance data to back it up, but it also gives insight into how the business got out of its comfort zone to innovate with the Lexus and Prius. If you're an advocate for an empowered and learning culture, you'll love this book as it's packed with inspiring examples of how their success started with a healthy culture and a long-term philosophy. This book gives insight into how Toyota creates an ideal environment for implementing Lean techniques and tools by: 🔸️Fostering an atmosphere of continuous improvement and learning 🔸️Satisfying customers (and eliminating waste at the same time) 🔸️Getting quality right the first time 🔸️Coaching leaders from within rather than recruiting them from the outside 🔸️Teaching all employees to become problem solvers 🔸️Growing together with suppliers and partners for mutual benefit

If you have the first edition the updated commentary doesn’t add enough value to bother buying this book. If you don’t have the first edition then it’s a good introduction to TPS. Just don’t believe the description when it says it’s been updated for this edition far too much is similar.

A must read for all engineers

perfect book

What makes this edition stand out is its focus on long-term thinking, scientific problem-solving, and the importance of cultivating a learning organization. Liker’s writing is clear, engaging, and packed with practical insights. He doesn’t just present tools—he emphasizes the culture and mindset behind them. This edition also includes updated examples from both manufacturing and service industries, making it highly relevant across sectors.
