How to Implement your Kaizen Event Successfully

By

Do you have trouble implementing or sustaining the initiatives after a Kaizen Event? Mark Hamel

In this Business901 podcast episode, I spent the bulk of the podcast on this subject with author Mark Hamel. Mark’s book, Kaizen Event Fieldbook: Foundation, Framework, and Standard Work for Effective Events spends a third of the book on discussing implementing and sustaining the event. The Fieldbook is actually that as you will see from our discussion.
