Opis

The most complex organization known in the universe is inside of our heads: our brain. The Lean Brain Theory aims to mimic human brain structure and functionality to enable the emergence of brain-like organizations in which the 'neurons' are the human-beings and the 'axons' are Lean Management oriented behavioral and communication patterns.
