Lean Glossary

Our Lean glossary is the stripped down model of The Continuous Improvement Companion. It contains only definitions, and excludes our more detailed Lean encyclopedia entries. This versions is more streamlined than our other resources, but it is also less comprehensive. If you would like a more extensive list of ‘best available’ terms, please check out our

Lean Dictionary

It rounds out our encyclopedia with any glossary terms that are available.


Our Lean Glossary

Note: To simplify our site, we no longer offer a separate Lean glossary. All of our Lean terms and definitions are now contained in our Lean Dictionary.
