Lean Banking™ was Invented & launched in 2025

Lean Banking™ is the official Lean simulation training kit to learn and practice Lean principles in the Bank and Finance industries.

What is "Lean Banking"?

​

  1. A business strategy (because business is tough) recognized globally​

  2. A systematic and structured approach to identify value and eliminate waste and variation in any business process for the purpose of increasing profits (NIM) and exceeding internal and external customer expectations.

  3. The name of a product we invented to allow your internal trainer (or us) to teach and deploy "Lean Banking".  It's a turnkey product in a briefcase simulating a bank loan process, and with full instructions!  See below . . .
