Last week we announced our Silver Lining Initiative to try and find something positive in all of the very serious news associated with COVID-19. Lean is at its core what biologists would refer to as an adaptive system. An adaptive system is an organized system by which living organisms evolve in response to a changing environment by adapting over time. Lean is also an adaptive system; it is an organized process by which an organization continually improves itself by reacting to problems by creating more value and incurring less waste over time. So that begs the question. Shouldn’t the way we teach Lean also be subject to improvement? Of course it should!
