Ep 113: How to Use the Japanese Principle of Kaizen to Give Your Practice a Competitive Edge
Manage episode 361080485 series 1001473
Kaizen is the Japanese business philosophy of continuous improvement. Rooted in post-World War II economic reform, Kaizen is about making steady changes for the better. Toyota famously used this concept to develop its lean manufacturing process and become a leader in quality in the automotive industry.
Kaizen can be used in a dental setting as well, allowing a team to revisit processes and make improvements for greater efficiency, effectiveness, and better patient care. In this episode of The Double Your Production Podcast, Dr. John Meis and Wendy Briggs are sitting down to explain exactly what Kaizen is, how it works in an organization, and how to apply it to a dental office.
The dental environment is filled with challenges: declining reimbursements, increasing costs, staffing shortages, and increased competition. With this shift in thinking, dental practices can be more adaptive to the changing dental industry and well-positioned for continued success.
