What Is Kaizen?
Kaizen is a Japanese term meaning change for the better or continuous improvement. It is a Japanese business philosophy that concerns the processes that continuously improve operations and involve all employees. Kaizen sees improvement in productivity as a gradual and methodical process.
The concept of kaizen encompasses a wide range of ideas. It involves making the work environment more efficient and effective by creating a team atmosphere, improving everyday procedures, ensuring employee engagement, and making a job more fulfilling, less tiring, and safer.
The overall goal of kaizen is to make small changes over a period of time to create improvements within an organization. That doesn't mean alterations happen slowly. The kaizen process simply recognizes that small changes now can have huge impacts in the future.
Improvements can come from anyone at any time. The idea is that everyone has a stake in the organization's success and everyone should strive, at all times, to help make the CAC the best it can be. If you see the need for improvement, please feel free to submit suggestions with the button below.
