"Andy & Me ,captures the opportunities and pitfalls in the journey of lean transformationIt is set in a real world plant environment that deals with physical, operational and emotional challenges. The story format engages, teaches and entertains the reader."
Anne Stevens, Group VP, Canada, Mexico and S. America, Ford Motor Company, January 15, 2005

"… one of the best books I’ve read in a long time on the subject of Lean and the Toyota Production System. Don’t be fooled by how simplistic some of the author’s solutions appear. If properly taught, and then religiously utilized, they will significantly improve your organization. Pascal Dennis is not only a seasoned ‘Sensei’ but a good storyteller as well."
Steve Pontbriand, Senior Vice President, Systems Control, January 15, 2005

"I do not usually like 'business novels' because the story gets in the way of the ideas. Andy and Me is the exception. This short and readable book does a wonderful job of explaining the transformation of a production plant to the Toyota approach to lean manufacturing."
Brian Maskell, Co-Author, Practical Lean Accounting, May 16, 2005

"Highly recommended. I just received this and tore through it. The book is a quick and light read, although you'll want to stop and let some of the TPS concepts sink in and re-read certain sections and illustrations."
Mark Graban, Phoenix, Arizona, July 7, 2005
