 Editor's Note: Lean and Green
by Michelle Bangert
Bill Strauss spent many of his summers working in his father's machine shop in Brooklyn during the 1970s. He saw computer numerical controls adopted into the shop, which made operations easier, but also eliminated his job of moving the big, clunky patterns.
Strauss says that is both the good and bad news to productivity growth-companies are able to produce more, but with less people. |
