Insights about improvement, innovation, and leadership…
Dear Readers,
Covid-19 has disrupted the world. We have been thrust into a situation where we are required to rapidly adapt and innovate, and the stakes have never been higher. Lean principles of continuous improvement and respect for people are more relevant than ever, and we all have a duty to help each other during these times.
News coverage has been extensive and often overwhelming, so, here, I simply share a few stories of how some folks and organizations are using lean thinking to help cope with these challenging conditions.
How Virginia Mason is using Lean to help respond to the crisis.
A Portland manufacturer uses lean principles to reduce the risk of coronavirus transmission at work.
Need for ventilators and supplies is mobilizing innovation.

Hospital elevator buttons are dirty. Many are using the ‘toothpick' hack to avoid touching elevator buttons.
Help others stay healthy, safe, and connected,
Ryan McCormack
