This chapter introduces the contextual issues that motivated this book project. Perspectives from Lean Operations to Lean Education are presented by several authors. To begin the book, it is important to have a concept of the Lean Education concept. The preface by Murman delineates that Lean Education includes both the inclusion of Lean Thinking as curriculum content and as a method of improving educational delivery. The thought of a Lean School or undergraduate or graduate Lean degree, for example, seems imminent, based on this preface.(undefined)info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersio
