Appreciative & Strengths-based Lean Thinking: Positive Engagement with Business Improvement and Efficiency – Introduction

Lean Thinking emphasises the importance of value, flow and continuous improvement. It is based on an assumption that there is a theoretical ‘perfect state’ for each organisational process and that the current state deviates from the perfect state due to inefficiencies and waste. Strengths-based Lean Thinking shifts the focus to co-constructing a vision that is based on our positivecore, and can make process improvement engaging, creative and resourceful, – because it works with what gives life: to people, to organisations and to their processes.
