Mastering the Habits of Continuous Improvement
Al Diaz writes for practitioners — people already inside Lean, Agile, Kanban, or Scaled Agile frameworks who want to move from understanding the theory to actually embedding improvement habits at the gemba, the point where real work happens. His coaching background with major technology companies gives the content practitioner credibility, and the intellectual lineage — Deming, Ohno, Shingo, Rother — is solid. For someone already working in continuous improvement and looking for a concise habit-formation companion, the accessible Kindle pricing makes it easy to sample. The honest caveat is significant: independent critical reception is very thin, which makes it difficult to assess quality with confidence. The specialist audience is also narrow. Worth considering for practitioners in the space, but go in knowing this hasn't been widely reviewed.
