The
Lean Institute Ukraine is part of the
Lean Global Network (LGN) based in Boston, USA. LGN is a network of 33 non-profit, mission-driven institutions that take responsibility for spreading Lean thinking and action in their country and region.
With approximately 300 Lean experts worldwide, we support organizations in a wide variety of industries and disciplines. Our definition of Lean thinking & doing: Systematic development of people and continuous improvement of processes aimed at creating value and prosperity with the lowest possible consumption of resources.
MISSION "Make things better, through lean thinking and practice."We carry out our mission through value streams: Lean Education, Lean Learning Materials, Co-Learning Partnerships, the Lean Summit conferences, and our website lean.org. In addition, we exchange information across the world through the Lean Global Network, consisting of more than a dozen nonprofit organizations similar to LEI, sharing a common mission in different countries.
Any company, executive, manager, team leader, or team member wishing to join the transformation to a lean way of creating value is welcome in our Lean Community. We exist to support everyone who is starting or continuing the lean journey.
TargetsWe are mission driven, so our goals are to help others:
- Provide more fulfilling work and ongoing personal development
- Enable people to realize and create more value
- Minimize the use of (scarce) resources and the impact on the environment
- Improve the performance of organizations
- Raising the standard of living of society
- Create value for our customers
- Strengthen the success of our organizations
Co-learningWe work together for our global customers around the world and develop "fit for purpose" solutions with core teams. For example, we actively participate in the development of completely new products and services, the creation of new production facilities and the development of new markets. Customers appreciate our approach, style of work, having a single point of contact and the fact that we have standard material available in countless languages.
EducationBy combining our knowledge and experience and making it accessible, we help our customers with quick access to cutting-edge knowledge and experience. For example, we rapidly develop business games, simulations, workshop material, prototypes and much more (both at the request of our customers and on our own initiative). Our trainings and workshops are highly regarded and lead to interesting results. We collaborate with various universities and colleges in both education and research and development.
