This is the second of our two part introduction to Kaizen.  Last episode we introduced Kaizen as "the way".  A philosophy, a way of thinking, part of everybody, every day.

This episode we introduce the core concepts of Waste versus Value.  We talk about types of waste, (WORMPIT) and give examples of what those mean in a real life situation at work, like standing around waiting, or re working something because it wasn't right the first time.

We also talk about Plan, Do, Check, Act, and how the first time you do something won't necessarily be the best version of that idea.  

We always come back to the fact that Kaizen is a discipline.  Some attention, focus and work is required.  If you're looking for a quick fix, Kaizen is not it.  

We are thinking about our own listener profile as well, and have a chat about who is our listener and what is our point of difference.  We know that we love kaizen, and we like to keep it real.

Thanks for listening.   Next up, an awesome Change JAM guest episode.
