Our Philosphy
INTRODUCTION
Founded in 2006 by direct disciples of Sensei Masaaki Imai, KIAP , a global management consulting company, is a pioneer in India in guiding organizations in their journey towards perfection. Crystallizing our experience of the past decades with a deeper understanding of the common underpinning between the ancient and current Indian and Japanese wisdom, we have formulated powerful tools and approaches to help organizations improve operational and business performance
Several of our consultants are also certified as ZED Master Trainers and Consultants. With their varied regional backgrounds, our consultants are able to communicate in the major Indian languages and this is a significant advantage as we work closely with the employees across all levels of our client organization.
Philosophy & Spirit
Our philosophy is rooted in the ancient Indian teachings that have inspired the Japanese Zen philosophy and given birth to universally acclaimed management thinking including those of Deming,Toyota Production System(TPS), Total Productive Maintenance (TPM) and Total Quality Management (TQM) amongst others.
‘CHANGE’ – the reality of impermanence and transformation rules the world always. Change to the next elevated state is IMPROVEMENT.
This is the crucial step in the path and stepping stone towards KANZEN or the perfect state. IMPROVING continually (often and periodically) is required to grow towards perfection.
Between every improvement effort, the organization should STANDARDIZE to consolidate the gains of improvement and progress (move ahead) towards PERFECTION. This is the philosophy on which KIAP’s whole approach to consulting is based.
