Sven Januszek successfully defends his doctoral thesis!
Congratulations! Sven Januszek has defended his dissertation “Implementing Lean Production: A Behavioral Perspective” on September 30th.
While the concept of lean management has been known to manufacturers for over 30 years now, still many companies are struggling to gain or sustain positive results from lean implementation. Sven discussed how the field of lean research has evolved over time and what managers and organizations can specifically do to effectively implement lean programs.
Sven has taken his expertise on lean into industry, as he now works for Swiss railway rolling stock producer Stadler Rail. We thank Professors Petra Schmid and Andrea Furlan for their support serving on the doctoral evaluation committee. Congratulations to Sven and his family!
