Incredible Vocational Excellence2023-24“Konichiwa” – From the land of rising Sun
Yamaha etc. not only industries everyone andeverplace started to reduce cost and how we can reduce
Human effort., The idea is not to provide job
opportunity but to save people for Longevity.,

Before I began talking about Kaizen, we should know
about Japan and their history., A small country where
the sun rises for first side among eastern countries., A
country adversaries are daily occurrence., small
country where mostly things did not get produced
everything has to be imported., hence cost is high foreverything apart from normal things. We are known
Japan for electronics, car, electricals equipment etc.,
Being in the fault line i.e. Seismic plate earthquake
comes inheritance from ages. Sometimes the weather
are rough and due to earthquake we see Tsunami waves
which has devastated Japan 2011., Apart from this theearly history of World War II where Atomic Bomb has
devasted Hiroshima and Nagasaki.
In war Japan was devastated they took a ought that theywould come back vengeance not in form of violencebut in form of becoming world greatest economy.,
They had become famous for being torn apart., but
now they will become famous for good things. One ofthing they wanted to make a turnaround was Industries
and Production and making things which would makethem proud.
Looking all the above conditions cost was major thing
and people scarcity during the war., they devise a
simple way of working to reduce Cost in factories andother place. That's where the emotion came
Kai to change Zen means for Good and that's how
kaizen came to Birth. The practice of improving one
condition from the earlier., In simple example if somethings take 10 mins to do how I can do it 8 mins.
That way of reform is called Kaizen. With this simple
principle companies like Toyota, Nissan, Mitsubishi,

All the Rotarians coming from various background canuse this principle to improve their work, lives andhome. Since Bombay and all other place the cost ofproperty is increasing at alarming in this case who we
can utilise the space in cupboard and how we organize
this things at home for retrieval use and keep it back.
The simple way to start working with Kaizen is tomeasure your work activity and then devise idea toreduce the time (focus on human effort and generateidea to use simple automation). From the concept ofkaizen there come another philosophy of 5s.
5s is way of organizing things and having clean andbeautiful place of work. So that you don't waste yourtime for searching and finding things. If the things areorganized and properly tag and clothes in wardrobe areproperly arranged., we would take less time to retrieve
there are saving our effort.
The philosophy is that every human being has been god
gifted is “Mind” and if human being carries the Mind
which can think and imagine then why don't we utilise
the same mind to generate ideas.
So putting human effort in unnecessary things is waste
for us a human being and that's the idea of the thing.
During my current visit the place i'm writing this article
is place called Ena and now its is -6 degree outside 6.00
am in the morning. Throughout this week we saw somebest factories and undertand more principles of Kaizen
in various and believe me every time I come here Igenerate new ideas of way of working and being
efficient.
With this article I just want to express my thoughts tomy fellow rotarians and friends there are simple
technique and we should learn and improve ourselves. I
have being promoting this knowledge since 15 years
now., You will find more details of kaizen on internet.,
but if you want to hear my experience I would be happy
to come and address your club.
Signing off – Arigato Gozaimasu.
