Lean Business System Benelux is a networking group primarily for practitioners (not consultants) in Belgium, the Netherlands (Holland) and Luxembourg. It may however be of interest to those from surrounding countries, in particular Germany and France. It is run by Shingo Prize winner Professor Peter Hines, Co-Founder, Lean Enterprise Research Centre, Cardiff University. It is designed for those interested in taking lean beyond the shop floor tool stage to full Lean Business implementation.

It is linked to the website http://LeanBusinessSystem.com . The group is meant for members to share their experiences, questions, successes and failures. It is also designed to signpost members to articles, activities or events that may be of interest to them. The group is not designed for consultants.

The group may also be of interest to those from a wider Continuous Improvement, Operational Excellence, Agile or Six Sigma background.

The group is a not-for-revenue group and is not affiliated to the Lean Enterprise Institute nor the Global Lean Network. « less
