More About Continuous Process Improvement

The idea of making big organization changes to improve products and processes is a common one. However it may not be the best option for creating effective change that lasts. Based on the japanese idea of Kaizen, continuous improvement asks for small changes everyday that add up to something big in the long term.

It's the difference between asking your employees to design a new product and asking them to think of some way that they can save 5 minutes every day. This five minutes a day doesn't sound very exciting, but if everyone in a company could save these five minutes a day every day it adds up to huge overall time savings.

This concept of asking employees how things can be more efficient is key to continuous process improvement. Employees have first hand experience in the nitty gritty of how your organization works and they know which things may take a lot of time for a little gain. Not only will employees make continuous improvement work, but they will feel more involved and engaged in the company if their opinions are sought and then acted upon.
