Great Podcast for Learning

I’ve listened to this podcast for 8+ years and love the material and discussions that Gemba Academy brings to the table on these. As someone who works in the continuous improvement space, it’s great to hear what others are doing that might help make my own work better! Great work Gemba Academy!

I love this Podcast

I was introduced to Lean and Six Sigma 5 years ago and it recently became my full time job. I enjoy listening to the various guests on this podcast and expanding my knowledge.
