Kaizen: The Key to the Success of Japanese Companies

Kaizen — is the constant striving for perfection in everything we do, embodied in specific forms, methods, technologies, and directed at people. Although the concept of kaizen originated in Japan, it has gained widespread popularity all over the world and has repeatedly convincingly proven its effectiveness, not only in industry but also in the service sector and in public organizations.
This book — is the primary source. Its author, M. Imai, was the first to introduce the term «kaizen» here and urged readers beyond Japan to pay attention to the enormous possibilities of Japanese-style management. His call was not left unnoticed.
This book is primarily aimed at the leaders of enterprises and organizations in all areas of human activity, of all sizes and forms of ownership. It is also of interest to managers at all levels, quality management personnel, human resources, marketing, and others. Students and graduate students in relevant specialties will find much useful information in the book. Management consultants in general management and quality management should not overlook it.
