The core of lean thinking is creating value and eliminating waste. Brother Shi Kai, summarizing 20 years of practical experience, deeply integrated lean thinking with digital transformation, pioneered a systematic and structured lean data method to guide enterprise digital transformation. This method has both theoretical depth and strong practicality. At the same time, he originally created a set of execution tools matching this method—the Lean Data Co-Creation Workshop. This is the industry's first method of co-creation using card games, which can help quickly integrate business and technology, identify value scenarios, and sort out project lists, which is very helpful for enterprise digital transformation.

What enterprises really need to do is to leverage the value of data, develop data into core products of enterprises, use data to stimulate innovation, drive product and user service improvements, and drive management transformation and business competitiveness enhancement. Data thinking is often the greatest driving force for leveraging data value. This book helps readers truly understand data, establish data thinking, and help enterprises implement value-driven data strategies.

I have listened to Brother Shi Kai's "Lean Digital Intelligence Transformation" series of courses, from which I learned how to use the power of data to drive enterprise digital transformation, and also experienced Brother Shi Kai's deep understanding and thinking about digital transformation, which was very beneficial. What surprised me was that Brother Shi Kai wrote this series into a book, more systematically explaining the underlying logic and capabilities of digital transformation, while citing a large number of very valuable enterprise practice cases, comprehensively and completely introducing the paths and methods of using lean data methods to achieve enterprise digital transformation.

This is a practical guide that can provide clear guidance to enterprises in digital transformation, combining theoretical systems and practical cases, and providing practical tools to guide enterprises to work from a data perspective. This book integrates lean thinking into digital transformation, explaining how enterprises should transform from process-driven to data-driven and how to find scenario value.

Lean thinking has enabled manufacturing enterprises to make significant progress. Now Brother Shi Kai compares digital enterprises to manufacturing enterprises that produce and process data, integrates lean thinking into digital transformation methods, forms the lean data method, and analyzes the problems and solutions when enterprises produce and utilize data from the perspective of underlying logic. If you also want to understand how to maximize the value of data, please read this book as soon as possible.

This book combines the practical experience of advanced data-driven enterprises at home and abroad, refines the concepts and methods of digital transformation into a systematic action framework that can guide practice, and also converts the complex construction project of data-driven systems into exploration and design processes that business personnel can understand through lean data co-creation cards. Whether in the analysis of methodology or in the design of actual processes, this book has unique and innovative ideas.

The author, combining years of industry experience, Chinese and foreign theories, and personal innovation, proposes many valuable viewpoints in this book, such as data being a new production factor, creating valuable data products being the most important work in enterprise digital transformation, and so on. Today, enterprises are constantly facing environmental uncertainty, and enterprise digitalization and intelligence are important means to support sustainable enterprise development. This book provides a good reference for enterprises undergoing digital transformation and their staff, and is a book worth reading!

After reading this book, I feel deeply moved. The book emphasizes being business-centered, transferring the main responsibility of digital transformation from IT departments to business departments, believing that digital transformation should start from business problems, adopt operational models to create lightweight, highly responsive lean data strategies, and build data governance systems and data middle platforms that resonate with business. The principles and principles in the book are worth every chairman and CEO to seriously think about, experience, and practice.

This book attempts to use lean thinking to answer and solve the practical problems faced by Chinese enterprises in digital transformation. Shi Kai, based on years of work experience in the consulting industry, proposes a complete and rigorous methodology, and many suggestions in the book are practical. I believe the experience and methods in this book will be very helpful to readers who lead and participate in digital transformation work.

I very much agree with the concept of combining lean thinking with data-driven. The author, combining consulting and practical experience, gradually formed a systematic method. This book has clear logic and is engaging. Practitioners who are thinking about how to carry out digital transformation and hope to achieve data-driven enterprises will definitely get inspiration and harvest from the book.
