Power hour: An introduction to lean business improvement techniques

Description

We can define Lean as a system for developing process improvement that is continuous and has a focus on reducing and eliminating waste and ultimately make how you operate your business or charity more efficient.

Lean is not just a way to reduce costs but is a way of thinking. It is not a short term solution. It is the way a group operates. It is actually a long term approach that requires discipline.

Lean is not just for manufacturing. Groups outside of manufacturing have used a Lean approach and had good results. This can include service groups, healthcare, and government.
