Abstract
Our time is limited and our resources are sometimes scarce. Yet, as continuous improvement professionals, we often are compelled to deliver quick wins, usually through rapid improvement events, also known as quick kaizen events. The question is: Can it be done effectively, and can it bring real value to the organization or area involved? The short answer is yes, if the event is well planned and well managed.
