For over 100 years, Dr. Lillian Moller Gilbreth's doctoral dissertation sat unread in Brown University's Special Collections - until now. The "Mother of Industrial Engineering" wrote a penetrating 1915 analysis of teaching that is startlingly relevant today.In Eliminating Waste in Teaching, Dr. Bob Emiliani revives this lost work, reproducing for the first time Dr. Gilbreth's complete dissertation alongside a modern bridge to today's Lean management practice. Discover how Scientific Management principles - applied to classrooms instead of factories - can transform K-12, higher education, corporate training, and consulting.Unique to this edition is a contemporary chapter, "Methods of Waste Elimination in Teaching," that draws on Toyota's Production System, practical guidance on grading inside the process, hybrid course design, and "Guerilla Lean" tactics for educators working against the status quo.Teachers, administrators, trainers, and historians of management will marvel at the depth of Dr. Gilbreth's insights and her unceremonious exposing of the truth.
