I'm going to go with Kanban, but only because I heard it's the one that lets you take a nap between production cycles. Sign me up!

Actually, it's Heijunka that helps balance production and reduce waste.

Kanban, no doubt. It's like the secret handshake of the just-in-time production world. If you don't know that, you might as well be trying to play chess with a waffle iron.

Hmm, let me think. Kanban, Kaizen, Heijunka... Wait, is Kanban the one where you wave little cards around to tell the other guys to make more stuff? That sounds about right.
