Three years ago Sari Torkkola was a CIO with great people in her team who...were burning out due to constant fire-fighting and internal customers describing the service level as “IT sucks”. She then realized that the traditional way of managing does not produce results for anybody. One day, she googled «Lean». 3 years later, she has turned into a leader who coaches everyday. This is the story of her Lean journey. More about Lean IT on www.lean-it-summit.com
