Who Should Attend

Some people believe that KAIZEN™ or Operational Excellence practices can only be applied in the manufacturing sector. The KAIZEN™ Congress seeks to challenge this belief!

KAIZEN™ is about continual improvement by eliminating wasteful activities to make process more efficient and increase ROI. With the right guidance and learning, KAIZEN™ can be applied across all industries, including manufacturing, services, agriculture and public institutions.

The KAIZEN™ Congress is open to participants across sectors and it is designed for Senior and Mid level managers from production, human resources, operations, customer service, operational excellence, supply chain, logistics, warehousing, and other functions
