Toyota Talent is a must read for manufacturers looking for an excellent and effective Training Program. Liker and Meier do a great job of detailing how Toyota has and continues to successfully use the “Training Within Industry” Job Instruction Program. A tried and true program originating in the good old USA! Being an owner/manager in manufacturing I find this book to be a great addition to the lean and TWI study and a real help in our continued lean and TWI journey. Highly recommended!

Toyota’s worldwide reputation is built on its reputation for quality and reliability, and its remarkably efficient operations. Manufacturers recognize Toyota as the model for superior industrial production in the 21st century. Toyota invests heavily in employee training and education because its executives believe that their workers hold the key to Toyota’s competitive advantage. Toyota employees are dedicated, knowledgeable, capable and enthusiastic. Jeffrey K. Liker and David P. Meier say that your organization can benefit from emulating Toyota’s training program. It’s a matter of making the commitment. getAbstract highly recommends studying this book. You’ll feel as if Toyota’s most revered sensei (the Japanese title for “teacher”) is explaining, step by step, how your company can organize a job-training program that will lead to Toyota-style success.

This book started off as a pretty boring book running on and on. It must have stated one point 3 different ways before it went to the next point. After about the 1st hundred pages it finally stopped doing that and became an enjoyable Toyota Way book that will surely help my company in our future implementation plan. I think one of the negatives is that the author made reference that this is not a DIY project (meaning that companies with no lean experts could handle this is absolute BS). I think the use of skilled trainers and some insights in using the TWI material was great. I wouldn’t recommend this book, but it wasn’t a total waste of a reading like Lean Thinking was.
