Certified Kaizen Professional
 
COURSE OVERVIEW
“Improve it even if it ain’t broke!” – It is easier to make small continuous improvements when things are going well than to wait for a major breakdown and overhaul the processes and systems, which could mean much disruption or irreversible damage by then. Kaizen or the concept of continuous improvement gets people to make gradual unending improvements, doing ‘little things’ better and achieving higher performance standards daily. Learn how to make your team feel valued and supported and in turn want to contribute towards productivity and creativity. You can also apply Kaizen concepts to achieve your personal goals whatever they might be.
