Jun Nakamuro is certified to coach the Taiichi Ohno method of Lean and Kaizen. Beyond conventional industry wisdom, he has persistently sought to understand Lean and Kaizen on a deeper level.
Over the last decades, Jun has gained extensive experience coaching in various industries, including healthcare. He has recently undergone extensive training in Japan and received certification following the TPS guidelines officially approved by Taiichi Ohno himself. Ohno’s most successful protégé, Hitoshi Yamada, has recognized Jun’s achievement and recognized him as a successor of Ohno’s philosophy. Jun’s mission is to bridge cultural barriers in order to spread the best concepts of Lean Manufacturing, Kaizen culture, and Strategy Deployment to organizations around the world.
In addition to the scientific methods of Lean, Jun is particularly passionate about the human element inherent in the Kaizen philosophy. His mission is to redefine how “Kaizen” is perceived around the world by moving beyond the simple concept of “Continuous Improvement.” Jun believes there is a much deeper meaning to Kaizen for leadership and personal development. The best way for people to understand Kaizen is to coach true leadership and expose them to its cultural of origin, and Jun helps PHLC design each tour and coaching styles around this vision.
