Acknowledgments

The Shingo Institute wishes to thank the team that provided scholarly work to produce the Shingo Model and its guidelines, which were first published in January 2008. The Shingo Model is still the basis for the curriculum and other work the Institute continues to develop today. Those most closely involved during their tenure at the Shingo Institute and Utah State University are Shaun Barker, Dr. Randall Cook, Robert Miller, and Jacob Raymer. Special thanks to Dr. Brian Atwater and Brent Allen for their contributions regarding systems thinking.

The Shingo Institute would also like to thank the members of the Shingo Executive Advisory Board who provided practical insights and critical feedback as the Model evolved. Many other friends of the Shingo Institute continue to contribute time and ideas in the pursuit of organizational excellence. The Institute is appreciative of each of them.

Finally, special thanks to the Jon M. Huntsman School of Business at Utah State University for providing the Shingo Institute with a home and an environment to learn, flourish, and grow.
