Law Firm Management Lessons From the Toyota Production System

By Sara Skiff | Friday, May 30, 2008

Coming June 3, 2008 to TechnoFeature: What can a law firm learn from an automotive manufacturer? A good deal, according to law firm management consultant and blogger Bruce MacEwen. In this article, Bruce discusses how the much-heralded Toyota Production System, which has helped Toyota dominate the industry, can facilitate strategic planning at your firm. Specifically, Toyota's approach can make your lawyers and staff feel less like a cog on an assembly line, and more like an integral, valued part of the team. The only problem is that incorporating TPS is about as "easy" as exercising, losing weight, and quitting smoking. But if you can do it, Bruce believes you can leave your competitors in the dust.
