A Little Bit About Us…
Hi there, I am Daniel Crawford and the founder of Lean Smarts.
Through my career as a Training Manager, General Manager, and Manufacturing Engineer I’ve become a lean enthusiast with a passion to help and teach others. Lean is fun! It disappoints me that much of what the internet has to offer in lean is complicated and hard to piece together.
At Lean Smarts we strive to make a difference by making lean accessible to all, while keeping it effective, easy, and fun.
