Bio
Jamey Lykins
Mark is truly a student of TPS. He was reliable and persistent in working to develop TPS in a variety of non-traditional applications unafraid to pioneer difficult thinking to show how the underlying TPS principles can work anywhere. He has a remarkable ability to think through and around a problem until he makes a breakthrough; whether in problem solving, or in training.
Lesa Nichols Consulting
Mark has a wide-ranging executive skill set. His understanding of Toyota's management approach has depth,breadth and context. This extensive understanding allows him to understand how to apply the key management tools and principles in many different circumstances. I know Mark to be unafraid of accepting challenges to prove out TPS application in the office, on the factory floor and with top management teams. His spirit of learn-by-doing is contagious. His mastery of hoshin planning,A3, PDCA and project management puts him in the highest category of transferring know-how to all levels of organizations. While he is fluent in Japanese, to me that is the smallest part of the contributions he makes.
