Triad lean's mission and client engagement philosophy

Helping businesses and non-profits improve critical processes, employee engagement, and structured problem solving through a pragmatic lean principles approach.


Our client engagement philosophy is rooted in three "triad" corners. The three corners, or vertices, are grounded in client respect, uniqueness, and culture.

A Unique "Triad" Client Approach (3 VERTICEs)

Vertex 1) We first strive to understand and respect your organization's current state

Vertex 2) We provide a customized lean program and/or structured problem-solving approach, not "canned"

Once we understand your organization's unique current state, we collaborate with you to develop a custom approach to help nurture and grow your organization to the next level. This engagement approach is in stark contrast to the commonly offered “canned” training solutions.  Some are better than others, but we find the learnings likely will not translate into long term adoption without proper initial understanding and alignment to the organization's ethos and history.

For every customized solution, the one common philosophy we discuss with all our clients is the extreme importance of fostering a culture of trust, transparency, and respect at all levels of the organization.  Again, this is the opposite of the "canned" solution approach which tend to focus almost exclusively on the methodology or tool im

For every customized solution, the one common philosophy we discuss with all our clients is the extreme importance of fostering a culture of trust, transparency, and respect at all levels of the organization.  Again, this is the opposite of the "canned" solution approach which tend to focus almost exclusively on the methodology or tool implementation.  Simply stated, the best problem-solving tools are useless if problems are not made visible in the first place.
