Is "Productivity Inc. and Press" same or different than "Productivity Inc."?

Subject line says it all.

Use of Harada method to embed continuous improvement

Does Bodek claim employers use Harada to embed continuous improvement into workplace cultures? If yes, where? Are there any publications on the Harada Method (apart from blogs and other promotional web sites)? wcrosbie (talk), Melbourne, Australia 08:49, 2 June 2012 (UTC)

Presumably Harada does in the 2012 translation of Harada's work by Keiko Morimoto, published by Bodek's PCS Press as The Harada Method Spirit of Self Reliance, the Human Side of Lean. Rorybowman (talk) 23:00, 15 December 2020 (UTC)
