XVIII European KAIZEN™ Congress

The 18th European KAIZEN™ Congress took place on April 20 in Poland. It was organized for the second time in cooperation with WSB Academy. The Congress was attended by more than 500 practitioners and enthusiasts of Continuous Improvement. It was broadcasted on the Pay Per View (PPV) platform and was simultaneously translated into English.

The guiding idea of each KAIZEN™ Congress is the motto “Practitioners for Practitioners”. Kaizen Institute Poland invited practitioners from well-known Polish and European companies to participate in the Congress and share their successes and challenges that they faced during their KAIZEN™ transformation journey.

This year’s Congress was divided into two parts. In the first, participants heard inspiring speeches from experienced KAIZEN™ and Lean practitioners. They learned more about strategy creation and its operationalization and optimization projects in market-leading retail and discrete manufacturing organizations, all based on facts. In each of these companies, building a KAIZEN™ culture was a natural approach to streamlining processes, supporting leadership, and creating a competitive advantage.

The second part of the event was the Expert Debate, where participants not only witnessed the exchange of ideas and experiences between the practitioners, but also had the opportunity to ask questions and discuss in a chat room.

The purpose of the Congress was to provide an opportunity to benefit from proven solutions, referring to years’ experiences of others, to guard against the pitfalls that can be encountered on the road to excellence.

We would like to thank all of you who participated in the event. We hope that the exchange of experiences was valuable and a large dose of knowledge for your organizations’ personal development. Special thanks also to our Strategic and Media Partners.

We are already inviting you to participate in the next XIX European KAIZEN™ Congress. More information will be available soon at https://plcongress.kaizen.com/.
