Leading Greats #69

Kaizen, is a Japanese term meaning "change for the better" or "continuous improvement." 

It embodies a philosophy centered around small, incremental changes that collectively lead to significant improvements over time.

Rooted in the belief that ongoing, positive change is essential for both personal and organizational growth, Kaizen promotes a culture of constant evaluation and enhancement.

Source and History

Kaizen originated in Japan following World War II, initially implemented in Toyota’s production system.

It was designed to enhance manufacturing efficiency and quality by involving every employee from top management to frontline workers, in the process of identifying and implementing improvements.

The success of Kaizen in Japan quickly gained international attention, leading to its adoption by organizations worldwide.

Public Speaking

As a Speaker, you need to keep up the practice to sharpen your craft.

• I got my reps in Friday evening.

• I had the pleasure of speaking at a private event in Beverly Hills, California.

• This was for a rapidly growing global organization of conscious leaders, investors, and innovators. Also, I am one of the owners.

The topic was Growth. 

• The crowd was engaged!

• I took the discussion in several directions, gauging interaction.

• The whole room was connected!!

• I was guided by their energy.

As I have experienced measurable growth personally, I shared many of my ah-ha moments and transition points to personal improvement, which many found inspiring.

The event was at capacity; doors locked at 7:30 PM to ensure focus and uninterrupted energy flow around our topic.

After being introduced, I took the mic and prompted attendees with growth-oriented ideas and questions.

The approach was to stimulate thoughtful dialog around growth: how it manifests and what barriers to growth appear in daily work and personal life.

The Law of Attraction was at play. 

Several of the attendees truly resonated with my ideas and views.

I got to meet many dynamic global leaders who are shaping innovative positive change.

I was offered the gift of feedback in real-time after the speaking event.

This can help me improve as I cater to the needs of the audiences I speak for.
