KAIZEN Continuous Improvement A Photo Essay

PROVISIONING TEAM

Like

a

sizzling

meat,

continually

changing while on a high-heat barbeque or grill, Kaizen Provisioning Team is true to its name… it’s continually improving.

Kaizen comes from the Japanese words

改

("kai")

which

means

"change" or "to correct" and 善 ("zen") which means "good".

Everyone is encouraged to come up

with small improvement suggestions on a regular basis. This is not a once a month or once a year activity. It is continuous.
