Ben Root

Hello, and welcome to The Lean Learning Academy!

My name is Ben Root and I am a senior coach with The Lean Learning Academy.

My journey in training and development began at Kent State University, where I earned a Bachelor’s Degree in Business Administration. While working at NUMMI I received a Master’s Degree in Human Resource Development from Golden Gate University in San Francisco, CA.

The real excitement for developing others sparked as I joined NUMMI.

There, I had the unique opportunity to watch first hand as an automobile company with over 7,000 employees went from the Worst of the Worst automobile plants to the Best of the Best plants in a very short time as they transitioned to the Toyota Production System or what many today call “LEAN”.
