Brian Maskell and Company Representatives

      We received feedback from the 2005 Summit that people attending would like to know more about the practical implementation of Lean Accounting. In this double session presentation you will hear from three different companies that recently transitioned to Lean Accounting. Their presentations will focus on the steps they went through to introduce Lean Accounting into their operations. The session will conclude with a presentation of a Standard Approach for the Transition to Lean Accounting.
      If you are planning to embark on the transition from traditional accounting to Lean Accounting, this double session will provide you with a lot of practical information and hands-on experience from people who have recently been through the same process.
