BLOGLean Enterprise Study Mission:
Japan Kaikaku Experience
Kaikaku: radical change, transformation, a revolution
While kaizen is the steady, long-term continuous improvement that requires participation by everyone, kaikaku is best described as a paradigm shift that occurs once every so often.
Our Lean enterprise study mission delivers a kaikaku experience to transform the mindset through a full-body experience. We have led over 50 lean study missions through more than 80 world class facilities in Japan, delivering the mental kaikaku experience to over 1,000 people.
Our clients have found that the Japan Kaikaku Experience (JKE) is the best approach to setting the vision of what Lean will look like and being the catalyst for culture change among the company's leadership team. This is why over 80% of our customers on the JKE tours are repeat customers.

"If you want real change, your whole team has to see it and they have to see it together." Jeff Kaas, President, Kaas Tailored
Kaizen is essential for a long-term Lean transformation but at the beginning, and at several critical phases kaikaku is necessary to break paradigms and elevate the awareness of people to a higher level of understanding. Often the way we do business must radically change in order to get dramatic improvement, and nothing helps that more than the whole leadership team believing in the change and having a clear vision as to where that will lead the organization.
