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.
