What 7 Lean Experts Have To Say About Kaizen
Eric Raio ask Paul to contribute to his article called, “What 7 Lean Experts Have To Say About Kaizen”. Below is an excerpt:
“‘Kaizen is a mindset!’
Is what people say, however when people are first getting into lean manufacturing, it can be a little overwhelming. So I reached out to experts in the Lean Manufacturing field and these are people who have proven to implement lean, teach others about it and love doing it.
The question I asked them was
‘What is one low-hanging fruit you can solve with a kaizen mindset’
I purposely made it vague so that I can get a variety of answers, interpret the question how they want, and I wanted something actionable that a person go back and implement.”
