I was sitting in my car driving down to Denver, enjoying the
beautiful snow and blue sky after a nice Colorado snow, thinking
about the seasons and the cycles that happen on an annual basis,
and how it can apply to our businesses.
In Japan, the concept of Kaizen is a driving force in business
philosophy.
Kaizen, when interpreted in English, means “Continuous
improvement”.
In the West, it is often tempting to think of things in a linear
manner — Something is broken, now it has been fixed, therefore
my job is done.
In the East, it is more ingrained into people’s minds to come
from a cyclical perspective — It is fixed, now I will improve
it, now I will improve it some more.
The difference between our ways of thinking are both in our
perspectives, and in our results.
Notice that Motorola, a Japanese company, is and was the leader,
in creating quality to a six sigma measurement.
Notice that year in and year out, Toyota’s are the best selling
cars and also the highest quality, longest lasting cars.
Is this a coincidence? I don’t think so.
Wally the Web Guy was founded on the idea of
continuous improvement.
When we work with our clients, we hope to see them not once, but to see them many times.
Together, we can create an upward spiral of larger profits,
improvement on your bottom line, and less work for both of us
with regards to your technology and your websites. Continuous
Improvement!

Happy Computing,
-Wally
