520 |a Peer beneath the surface, says entrepreneur and management consultant Daniel Stamp, and you'll realize that every organization has an assembly line. Whether you produce coffee cups, legal briefs, or financial statements, the line is there - in the form of connections among people, materials, finished products, and time schedules. But because it is invisible, the white-collar work process is rarely as well-structured and effective as it can be. And that's where this insightful guide can help. It will enable you to uncover the hidden assembly line in your own workplace and reshape it to new advantage. Your chief tool is Daniel Stamp's eight-step approach to process improvement, which has been tested and proven worldwide. Dubbed the Knowledge Process or k-Process, this approach is custom-designed for the fastest-growing segment of the workforce - those who work primarily with their minds rather than their hands.

The book also contains a wealth of user-ready worksheets and farms that will aid you at every step, along with case studies.
