Welcome
Kaizen for Kids
Self-improvement isn’t the province of adults only! Enlist your kids in their own self-improvement program. Call it Kaizen for Kids.
Kaizen is a Japanese term meaning “continuous process improvement.” It’s been used throughout the business world to reach toward zero defects in production processes. Ingrid Cummings, author of The Vigorous Mind, has adapted Kaizen to the larger world, where we’re all trying to be better versions of ourselves. And instill in our kids habits of mind that will serve them well in their adult lives.
Here’s how to introduce Kaizen into a household with kids. Let’s use the usual getting-ready-in-the-morning chaos as our example of a process that could, um, usually use a healthy dose of process improvement.
