“The Lean Construction Institute’s annual Congress is an event I look forward to with anticipation each year. I always come away with new learning, invigorated to try new things, and with a renewed commitment to continuous improvement. Congress is one-part networking, one-part learning, and one-part therapy for those looking to make changes in their workplace.”
James Pease, Executive Director, UCSF Health Design and Construction

“It is so exciting getting together to share and learn from peer industry leaders during the Lean Congress. It is one of my favorite events where I always learn and connect with colleagues and other front-runners on cutting edge Lean methodologies.”
