The Kaizen Path Approach
The Japanese concept of Kaizen, which focuses on continuous improvement and incremental changes, naturally aligns with the idea of growth and progress. By constantly seeking to enhance processes, products, and outcomes, Kaizen enables individuals and organisations to evolve, develop, and achieve success over time. Just as a flowing river continues to move forward, Kaizen propels growth and advancement through its commitment to ongoing improvement.
