Learning to Embrace Change


The most significant roadblock to successful lean implementation is employee resistance. Lean Zone® training simulations are designed to bridge that crucial gap between implementation of "lean" and employee acceptance.

Lean Zone® products are a fun, educational way to expose employees at all levels of your organization to the change process and motivate them to desire improvements in their office processes. With Lean Zone® simulations, employees quickly grasp lean concepts and overcome their natural resistance to change. Whether you're implementing an extensive lean program, or simply planning a strategy meeting, brainstorming session, or any other group encounter where change will be a primary issue, Lean Zone® simulations can help break the ice.

Packaged in a unique kit format, Lean Zone® simulations allow managers to easily and cost-effectively train employees in a matter of hours.

Our first simulation, Lean Zone® Production Methodologies, has aided hundreds of manufacturing organizations by breaking down the fundamental barriers to successful lean implementation. Now, with Lean Zone® Office, you can extend those benefits into the office environment.
