#22 Kaizen

Albert Asensio Navarro

I CANNOT DO IT BY MYSELF. The towers are built by counting on everyone, even the smallest team member is important. The “Castell” would not be possible without this teamwork.

Miriam Miras

The term kaizen is all about team work, about the selection of each of its members, to create an outcome of total harmony. This is why I have chosen the example of the matryoshka dolls: they are all identical except in size, going from the smallest to the largest to form a single doll when they are put together.

Any time, any place, anywhere, you can alter your view. Change the universe with different eyes.

PORTRAIT. Like an artist with their canvas, adding a little every day towards better works.

+LIFE. Kaizen relies on human judgment to determine through observation what should be added or subtracted during the process, in order to achieve a better result.

THE POSITIVE ASPECT. The idea of “change for the better” or “improvement” of kaizen is represented by an origami-process, which starts with a simple piece of paper, develops to the typical origami crane which morphs to a real flying bird. The art of origami leads us to Japanese technique and the folding process to daily growing, which is also represented by the growing composition of the drawing.

He who desires kaizen is seeking the overcoming spirit. He who finds it carries his life and his work like a magic toy on a tray of continuous improvements. He who knows kaizen will never turn back.

EXPRESS YOURSELF. Looking for another opportunity in immensity […]. It’s finding your way without forcing your destiny. […] Thinking with your heart and understanding your reasons. Being honest, it is your destiny to be able to understand which your way is. Just being taken away to be able to listen, think and speak later.

Anuska Allepuz

Kai-zen is a method of change in which people work for the good of the company […], it is a system of behaviour that adapts the attitude to continuously improve processes.

Concentrate on your workspace and put it together. Through synergic teamwork we shall create continuous improvement!

MACHINERY. Throughout the kaizen process, human judgment can become, a mere piece of machinery in a much larger engine.

Old ideas move as slowly as an elephant in your brain. It´s a hard task to uproot these ideas and replace them with newer and better ones.

Maria Zúniga Marca

Combining personal effort in favour of a common benefit.

Oriol Sintes Saez

Reinforcing the participation and creativity of workers is a very positive aspect of the kaizen method. Their minds can come up with productive ideas that develop the industry within the company and wellbeing their fellow workers […].

Let’s take it step by step: Identify. Separate. Eliminate. Make changes. Check. Check again. Measure results. Make it standard. Celebrate. Start it all over again!

Luciano Lozano Raya

In kaizen any worker can stop the assembly line if he thinks the product will be improved by doing so. This also gives importance to feelings. A hug makes the bonsai happier and that makes for a better product. At the same time, the worker is more involved in his work.

Luciano Lozano Raya

All the components of a team are equally important. The perfect combination of these elements make the company grow and solve problems.
