A COMMUNITY-LED ORGANISATION FOR LEAN LEARNERS, LEADERS AND LOCALS TO MAKE GOOD CHANGE

Our Members enjoy unique experiences to support causes they care about and learn Lean through doing while taking part in Community Kaizens to support Charities, Social Enterprises and organisations in need.

Carefully selected Charities and background information on WHAT PROBLEM THEY'RE TRYING TO SOLVE will be presented to our Members. Our Members will have the opportunity to decide if they would like to be part of the COMMUNITY KAIZEN TEAM initiatives in areas of social purpose that they wish to support. The TEAM will follow a PLAN-DO-CHECK-ACT Framework to assist the Charity on a volunteer basis through one or several improvement cycles. Each of our COMMUNITY KAIZEN initiatives will be registered with the UN Partnerships for Sustainable Development Goals database and will follow global reporting guidelines. COMMUNITY KAIZEN TEAMS will be given the opportunity to share their improvement journeys online as well as at our KAIZEN CONNECTION EVENTS

What is Lean?
Lean is a powerful continuous improvement methodology, philosophy and competitive strategy - all-in-one and applicable to any industry.
It is both a customer and person-centered approach involving continuous learning and problem solving to maximise the delivery of value to the customer.
The best approach is dependent on the changing needs of the customer, the people and the organisation involved in the Lean journey - rewarding collaboration and team progress.
For leaders, a Lean journey takes passion, purpose and patience to lead from the front but also to serve the process owners who are providing what the customer needs.
Lean practitioners play a unique role in any application of Lean - most times as both coaches and students. They are catalysts, bridge builders and mentors in the principles and values of Lean - Continuous Improvement and Respect For People.
At LEAN dot Group, we understand that Lean can be both a science as well as an ever-evolving transformation activity.
