Kaizen
also known as
Continous Improvement
also known as
Process Of On-Going Improvement
Introduction
Some of you may ask where the word "kaizen" came from.
Kaizen word came from Japan. It means never ending continous improvement done by all
employees. Kaizen usually means no or very small investment rather changing procedures,
company policies, layout etc.
I feel that is enough as some basic explanation for those hearing the word KAIZEN for the
first time, even it is not perfect. And some might argue it is not perfect explanation.
Let the university professors and all such theorist to discuss what is
the kaizen and what is the difference between kaizen and kaikaku and so on.
I do not mind theory. I am fighting daily in real business and I need results.
I will try to release quickly much more information about kaizen, with
focus to practical examples and recommendations as there are many theoretical articles and
books. You can find reviews of some books here
I try to do kaizen with my staff daily as well as my colleagues do the same with their
staff. Maybe you will find some useful hints.
