Kaizen

Kaizen is an approach to total quality management which can be described as continuously improving by making small improvements, mainly in process, every time the process is seen not to be as good as it could be.

Kaizen stands for two japanese words "kai" (change) "zen" (good or for the better) so it's change for the better. The idea here is continual improvement.
Kaizen focus:
- elimination of the 6 types of waste
- the five-S framework
- standardization.

Kaizen works well in slow-growth economy whereas Six Sigma is better adaptive in a fast-growth economy. Kaizen tends to involve everybody and the pace of improvement is gradual and small.
Kaizen is used for continual or small incremental improvement over a long time span rather than a drastic breakthorugh or revolution
Kaizen is the wayto achieve 100% Quality

Kaden

On the outside, he seems like a smart, witty guy who isn't too aware of social dynamics. But, oh no, that's not quite the case; he knows things and just does tell you until the time is just right. This guy... he thinks more than you think he thinks. Yes, I know that sounds weird but this guy is up to more than you think. Nerdy? He acts like it, but oh no, you see him out of school and he is completely different. He's VERY smart and changes how he acts to meet the situation perfectly. He knows when to talk or when he be quiet. He knows when to be confident and when to be modest. He knows a lot, and he's ambitious. He doesn't want to be popular, but he wants to be respected. Kaden, he's a great guy. Very charismatic. Very logical. He's knows how other people think. With the girls, they say he's charming. And I'm salty that I'm here alone. He's no player. Don't worry about that. But he likes honest girls. He wishes that he could meet more people in life, but he knows that he'll never get to know everyone. So, perhaps you should instigate something. You won't regret it...
"Ah, Kaden," they say. "Always looking at those Japs."
