Is a Kaizen Event Right for the Job?

Kaizen events are a big deal. They pull people away from their
regular jobs for a number of days; they require training,
leadership must make necessary resources available, and internal or
external facilitation is needed. Not every improvement project
should involve a Kaizen event. But there are some situations that
call out for them. To determine if a Kaizen event is the right
approach to a particular situation, ask yourself these questions.
