Kyaizen An Old New Quality Concept
The Japanese word 'Kaizen' means gradual, unending improvement; doing little things better; setting - and achieving - ever-higher standards. Masaaki Imai, the author of a book with the same title in the late eighties, says that it is Kaizen that is the simple truth behind Japan's economic miracle and the real reason the Japanese have become the masters of "flexible manufacturing" technology - the ability to adapt manufacturing processes to changing customer and market requirements, and do it fast.

How To Keep Your Business Afloat
I was talking with my good friend Doug Maurer the other day. Doug is the founder and owner of Brian-Kyles Construction, which is a landscaping company based in Northeast Ohio. Doug was talking with me about a plant in my front yard that wasn't doing so well. He was explaining how I should cut the shrub down to its base to re-balance the plant so the roots were larger than the plant itself. And then he said a magical quote, "plants don't want to die." It got me to thinking about how businesses are a lot like plants. Businesses don't want to die either. This is particularly true of small businesses.

Pollen and Mold Allergy
During much of the year, plants produce pollen. Mold knows no season and may occur anytime. Plants release pollen in order to fertilize other plants. Not all of those particles reach their intended targets. Some enter the airways of people. The same goes for mold, which can find its way into the nose or mouth through many routes.
The Amazing Karaoke Decades Game
Living in Japan, one ends up in a karaoke box every now and then. I find that singing karaoke is a great way to relieve stress and bond with friends, new and old.

Remember the ruin of Haiti in the wake of last year's quake?
