The term kaizen (改善, Japanese for "improvement") is a Japanese word adopted into English referring to a philosophy or practices focusing on "Continuous Improvement" in manufacturing activities, business activities in general, and even life in general, depending on interpretation and usage. When used in the business sense and applied to the workplace, kaizen typically refers to activities that continually improve all functions of a business, from manufacturing to management and from the CEO to the assembly line workers. By improving standardized activities and processes, kaizen aims to eliminate waste and improve Quality Control. Kaizen was first implemented in several Japanese businesses during the Japanese post-war economic miracle and has since spread to businesses throughout the world.

It appears Toyota has forgotten about Kaizen.
