Non-utilized talent is the eighth type of waste or MUDA that is identified in Lean methodology. It refers to the underutilization of workers’ skills and knowledge. 

The effects of non-utilized talent on a process can be significant. When workers’ skills and knowledge are not being utilized effectively, it can lead to a lack of motivation, decreased productivity, and a negative impact on the overall work environment. 

To avoid non-utilized talent waste, companies can take several steps. One approach is to provide training and development opportunities to workers to help them improve their skills and knowledge. Another approach is to encourage workers to share their ideas and knowledge with others in the organization.
