If you want something you’ve never had, you must be willing to do something you’ve never done.

In today’s complex and constantly changing world, advantages and opportunities often have a short life span. In this context, a structure and operations that are high-performing, flexible and sustainable are essential to the survival of an organization. However, with an ever-increasing variety of management models and methods, it is sometimes difficult to know where to start. The one thing they agree on is the need to perform superior work in ideal conditions, while expending a minimum of time, resources and energy. In other words, being lean. Lean Management is about achieving these goals by focusing on activities that create value, while eliminating those that do not.
