Diary of a Kaizen Warrior

Reflections on Lean, Kaizen, productivity and improvement from more than 30 years in the field.

I’m not sure if anyone has noted the “Teddies in Windows” phenomenon, but I read this morning that 1-3 houses in NZ have joined in.

Here are some of the offerings from my exercise route. I feel this panda may have done something wrong? or even does this serve warning to any child that misbehaves during lockdown? Strange, but amusing!

Next example is three bears, possibly mummy, daddy and baby heading out for a ride on the ute.

The final example is my favourite so far. Ted is precariously walking the tight rope and this has a Cirque du Soleil vibe to it.

Top marks to the residents of Palm Springs for their interpretation of Teddies in Windows!

About me

Hi, I’m Richard Steel — an experienced practitioner in productivity, process improvement and continuous improvement.

I was fortunate to complete my initial Lean experiences from 1994 – 1997 with Professor Dan Jones, Toyota, Nissan and Shin-jujitsu consulting.

Over the past 30 years I’ve worked across a wide range of organisations, helping improve performance, develop capability and embed practical improvements that last.
