Most business owners think AI and new technology will fix what's broken in their company. Paul Akers disagrees — and he's been inside factories with 10,000 employees on every continent to back it up.In Part 2 of this conversation, Paul and Dwayne go deeper into the mechanics of Lean culture, and why the secret to happiness and business success might be the same thing.In this episode:Paul's three-word formula for rolling out Lean in any organization without blowing up the culture: slow, consistent, and self-selectionThe 30-minute challenge: instead of solving an employee's problem on the spot, Paul gives them 30 minutes to come up with three solutions on their own — and why that single shift changes everything about how a team operatesWhy Lean is not a burden — it's pure joy: when every tool is where it belongs, every process flows, and people aren't waiting on you to fix things, the business stops grinding and starts movingPaul's take on AI and technology: they are accelerants to a well-run company, not a substitute for oneEpisode Highlights:00:00 - Technology Not The Answer00:17 - Podcast Intro And Setup01:20 - Change Only When Ready01:58 - Burn The Ships Commitment03:05 - Slow Consistent Self Selection04:11 - The Bob Conversation06:17 - Labor Laws And Firing Customers07:14 - Communicate With Video09:11 - Lean Should Feel Fun10:28 - Tools And Process Thinking13:00 - Progress Equals Happiness13:33 - Gemba Walkthrough Basics15:22 - Teach People To Solve Problems17:30 - Meetings Are Mostly Waste20:19 - No Departments Just Lean21:25 - What Gemba Really Means22:56 - Job Sites And Lean Visits25:21 - Action This Day - Winston Churchill28:43 - Capture Lists And Proximity31:04 - Text Expanders For Flow32:23 - Instant App Sharing32:54 - Flow With Text Expanders34:10 - Avoiding Overproduction34:32 - What Slow Really Means36:02 - Lean Health Basics38:47 Lean Life Happiness Map40:36 - Filling Knowledge Gaps42:34 - One Improvement Daily44:34 - AI As An Accelerant46:31 - Simple Finance Systems49:07 - Lean Culture At Home52:43 - Japan Mission Requirements54:25 - Hiring For Humility56:24 - Lean Is Fun Closing58:23 - Where To Find Paul59:59 - Podcast Wrap UpResources mentioned:2 Second Lean — Paul AkersLean Health, Lean Travel, Lean Life, Banish Sloppiness — Paul AkersToyota Production System (TPS)Kaizen foam — referenced tool for visual process organization5 Whys — Japanese problem-solving method referencedTraining Within Industry (TWI) — referenced frameworkGetting Things Done — book by David AllenFastCap YouTube channel — https://www.youtube.com/user/fastcaptvQuotes:“ The answer to having a great company is not to focus on technology or focus on AI. Those are tools that are accelerants to a well run company. You still have to have a well run, well organized company with well-trained people.” - Paul Akers“ I almost don't know what's going on in my company anymore. It's, it's so, they're, they're so far ahead.” - Paul Akers“ I met a lot of my needs of significance and certainty by solving people's problems for them.” - Dwayne Kerrigan“ Slow, consistent and self-select. Self-select. The people that don't wanna do this will self-select out.” - Paul Akers“ People are depressed, because nothing's changing. And matter of fact, they're in decline. This Lean thing, this idea of continuous improvement is like the secret to life.” - Paul AkersAbout Paul Akers: Paul Akers is the founder and president of FastCap, a product development company specializing in woodworking tools and hardware for professional builders, started in his garage in 1997. FastCap now has thousands of distributors in over 40 countries and launches 20–30 innovative products per year. Paul is the author of 2 Second Lean — now available in 15 languages and a Shingo Institute award winner — along with many additional books. He has won Seattle Business Magazine's Business Executive of the Year and spoken in over 34 countries.Connect with Paul Akers: https://paulakers.net/Connect with Dwayne KerriganFacebookInstagramLinked InWebsiteDisclaimer: The views, information, or opinions expressed by guests during The Dwayne Kerrigan Podcast are solely those of the individuals involved and do not necessarily represent those of Dwayne Kerrigan and his affiliates.

Paul Akers started FastCap in his garage with no MBA, no funding, and one simple conviction: fix what bugs you. Today FastCap ships over 2,000 products to more than 40 countries, and runs on a philosophy so simple it fits in two words — eliminate waste.In Part 1 of this conversation, Dwayne Kerrigan sits down with Paul to unpack the Lean methodology that made it all possible, and why it has nothing to do with manufacturing.In this episode:Paul breaks down the eight wastes of Lean thinking — overproduction, transportation, inventory, defects, over-processing, wasted motion, customer waiting, and wasting human potential — using a Costco toilet paper run as the most memorable example you'll ever hearWhy Paul calls himself a "Lean maniac", not a lean practitioner: "How do I improve this? And how do I make it easier for everyone around me?" — the two questions that drive every decision at FastCapThe communication standard Paul holds his entire organization to: no one should ever have to ask you a question twice, and why every back-and-forth email chain is a symptom of a deeper waste problemHow FastCap documents every single process — from cleaning a toilet to setting up a $250,000 injection molding machine — using eight-step visual SOPs, QR codes, and unlisted YouTube videos that any employee can access instantlyWhy Paul starts every Lean implementation the same way, regardless of company size: the bathroom. And why every visitor to FastCap — including presidents of major corporations — cleans the bathroom before they're allowed a tourThe mindset Paul refuses to argue with: if you're not ready to change, he's not interested in convincing you — and why that boundary is itself a Lean principleEpisode Highlights: 00:00 - No Questions Twice00:22 - Podcast Welcome00:54 - Meet Paul Akers04:37 - FastCap Origin Story08:31 - Lean Gospel Mindset10:34 - Lean Maniac Defined13:42 - Eight Wastes Explained17:03 - Small Daily Improvements20:10 - Hunger and Underdogs28:31 - Lean History Lesson31:36 - Toyota Just In Time34:15 - Skeptic to Believer35:25 - Lean Is People First36:33 - Stop The Line Mindset38:00 - Three Habits Of Toyota40:46 - Morning Meetings42:45 - Dialogue Not Monologue43:26 - Keynote Agenda And Culture48:03 - Defects And Kanban Flow51:56 - One Hour Before Work Pays53:59 - Ego And Leadership Growth57:08 - How To Start01:03:16 - Standard Work And QR Training01:07:30 - Who Actually Changes01:08:22 - Wrap Up And DisclaimersResources mentioned:2 Second Lean — Paul AkersLean Health, Lean Travel, Lean Life, Banish Sloppiness — Paul AkersThe Amezawa Legacy — Paul AkersLean the Gospel Dressed Up in a Business Suit — Paul Akers (in progress at time of recording)Out of the Crisis — Dr. W.

Zero." - Paul Akers“ I read Dick and Jane like 10 times when I had to read it in front of the class. I had to read it over and over and over again and memorize it so I didn't screw it up when I read in front of the class.” - Paul Akers“ But there's one thing that I've kind of realized in life is that the reason why we don't have something in our life is because of the story that we're telling ourselves.” - Dwayne Kerrigan“Everything I look at, I'm always thinking, how do I improve? How do I increase the quality and reduce the burden on me and the people around me? So I want everything to be. Easy for everyone. No struggle in flow.” - Paul Akers“ No one should ever ask you a question twice. If you communicate to someone, your communication should be so clear that when you say it and the words come out of your mouth, they go, I understand exactly what you want.” - Paul AkersAbout Paul Akers: Paul Akers is the founder and president of FastCap, a product development company specializing in woodworking tools and hardware for professional builders, started in his garage in 1997.

Just how safe is your business online? Fraud cases have more than doubled in recent years, while AI-driven scams are only growing more sophisticated. Today's guest shares how you can protect your business. John King is an experienced business executive and IT consultant who has worked with many small, midsize, and Fortune 1000 companies. He has held various management positions including Controller, CIO, Director of Applications Development, and president of his own consulting company. His book The Compass Approach provides techniques for managing a business around the four points of the compass to achieve improved results. Staying Safe Online John is a founding member of TrustedAndTrue, a one-of-a-kind matchmaking service that addresses a growing concern in the dating industry: fraud and theft. TrustedAndTrue's rigorous enrollment process eliminates the risk of individuals using fake identity credentials, giving users the security that everyone they interact with is who they say they are. TrustedAndTrue stems from John's work at The Authenticity Institute, an organization working to implement authenticity solutions in different industries. One of their latest innovations is the digital signature, which requires an in-depth identity verification process. To keep your business safe from scams, you could require a digital signature to access certain materials.  Unlike traditional passwords, the digital signature is virtually impossible to hack. Most information security technology aims to catch scammers after they've already broken into your records. Digital signatures could potentially prevent these crimes before they happen.  Marketing Across Industries Because their technology can apply to so many industries, The Authenticity Institute looks for entrepreneurs with deep experience in a particular vertical. Those experts become the marketing team, spreading the word about authenticity technology in banking, healthcare, law, real estate, and even the music industry. Each industry has a unique perspective business plan.

You may not be successful with that. You may end up with a write-off you don't really want to have.” 22:00-22:17 “If you look at the information security market, it's growing by leaps and bounds. But they're operating on a premise where they ‘catch the bad guys' after the fact. We're saying we don't want to do that. We want to catch you before you go in.” 31:40-32:03 “What happens is one of your vendors gets their email address hacked and they send you a request to send some information and give you a fake number, and all of a sudden, you send thousands of dollars to an address that you've not sent before. And you've got a problem.” Quotes “The key is having an entrepreneur who understands the marketplace and can say this is how it should work and this is how we can bring value to that particular marketplace.”  “They're operating on a premise where they ‘catch the bad guys' after the fact.

The ONLY 3 Reason Businesses Fail Ever wondered why so many businesses collapse, even when they seem to be doing everything right? Join us on A New Direction as we dive deep into Larry Mandelberg's eye-opening book, Businesses Don't Fail, They Commit Suicide. Larry Mandelberg has taken his years of experience, and his own coaching case studies to ask the burdening question... Why do businesses fail? So often we want to blame failure on financial reasons, but are finances the problem or merely the symptom? Who is in control of the finances? Who hired them? As Larry Mandelberg points out so often we blame the fail on the symptoms of the company, and we never get to the real problem. No doubt we will work through the uncomfortable truths most entrepreneurs and business owners ignore. From poor decision-making and resistance to change to leadership blind spots, we'll explore the real reasons businesses fail—not because of market forces, but because of leadership sabotage. Larry Mandelberg's book, "Businesses Don't Fail They Commit Suicide: How to Survive Success in Good Times and Bad" is not just another business book.  In fact, it is the results of Larry Mandelberg's research with over 100 companies and 250 Business Executives. The title is luring, for sure.  However, when you consider that every business failure is not a result of money, but a result of poor leadership, we come to realize, we don't kill the business, it's our behavior or lack thereof why the business commits suicide. This book not only helps you understand the "only 3 reasons business fails", but then it moves you to understanding how maturity will affect what you do in your business and how in ever step of business maturity (from "youth" to "adulthood") where you can fail. Coupled with that he identifies the 3P's of success that are critical to business majority and where these fail, so do our business. Finally, Larry takes us through the 8 index identifiers that can trip us up and keep us from being successful, maintaining success or committing suicide. Fantastic book, deep, insightful, tons of knowledge and will change your perspective.  It begs us all to ask the questions are we treating the symptoms or are we truly diagnosing the problem?
