Lean is about creating value for the customer and developing people to solve problems. These fundamental concepts help to develop a culture of continuous improvement through daily practice. They include eliminating the waste that interferes with delivering value, applying scientific thinking to problem solving and improvement, respecting people, standardizing the one best way to do the work, and improving processes. Mastering these practices is the foundation of any Lean organization.
