Principles of Kaizen

#DevelopGoodHabits.com
Try to do something just a little bit better each day in order to make a larger impact in the long run

  1. Never Stop
    There is an area for improvement in everyone's life, no matter how successful they are
  2. Eliminate Old Practices
    Let go of former habits, even if they seemed to have some benefit to you at the time
  3. Be Proactive
    Stop hesitating because of possible hurdles that you foresee and move forward
  4. Don't Assume New Methods Will Work
    Just because something worked for someone else does not mean that it will work for you
  5. Make Corrections
    Recognize areas that can use improvement and make relevant corrections
  6. Empower All Employees to Speak Up
    Encourage suggestions from others if they see things that could be worked on
  7. Crowdsource
    Learn from other people and get some new ideas on things you can use to create continuous improvement
  8. Practice the "5 Whys" Method
    Continuing to ask why can help to find the real reason behind a problem
    NOTE: Worked with someone who said 3 should be sufficient; otherwise, get help
  9. Be Economical
    Consider specific things you can save money on
  10. Don't Stop
    Never consider yourself to be finished
    Improvement has no limits
