Lean is Not Just Process Improvement

Published: Jan. 16, 2017, 3 a.m.

In my travels, I often meet people or visit organizations that say something like:"We're doing Lean... we just call it Process Improvement."\n\nThey have a "Process Improvement" (PI) department, or they call it "Continuous Process Improvement" (CPI). They have people in roles like "Process Improvement Facilitators."\n\nWhile process improvement is great, in using a term like that,there's perhaps a risk that they miss the full and complete essence of Lean and, therefore, don't get the results that they might hope for.\n\n--- \n\nSupport this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/lean-blog-audio/support
