Business Problems Solved Podcast Real People, Real Stories, Real Value - with Paul Dunlop
Paul Dunlop is a lean consultant, dedicated to continuous improvement, whose career has taken him through many sectors and endowed him with a wealth of business experience.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

- Lean is fundamentally about people, and centres around engaging with, and providing growth and development for people.
