Kaizen’s origin

Kaizen is a small steps philosophy which manifest itself with a field management. It is a state of mind which applies with Lean tools. 
Translated literally by " change for the better ", " never-ending improvement ", Kaizen allows to reach the elaboration of working standards so that this one is more productive, more effective, less tiring, more safe. 
This continuous improvement concerns not only equipments, but also all the aspects of the work: methods, ergonomics, tools, individual performances … Furthermore, it does not require either important structural investments, or endless learning of the perfectibility.
Experimented by Toyota, this philosophy made in Japan revolutionized the organization of work ; resumed by Lean Key, it allows to introduce the absolute quality in your company
