I hear quite a few people in the construction industry throwing around the term "Lean" or "Lean Construction" or "Lean Productivitiy", but I find that a good percentage of them really don't have a complete grasp on the concepts and the theory behind Lean Construction. I think one of the most important concepts in Lean Construction is the idea that we make construction management decisions based on what's best for the overall project. That's a very broad statement, and there is a great deal that flows from that, so we created a new course on LinkedIn Learning called Construction Management: Introduction to Lean Construction, to explain more.
Check out one of the videos from this course, and click on it to see more on LinkedIn Learning.
