Kaizen

Kaizen may sound like another type of massage, but it’s not.  Still, kaizen is a vital part of the National Holistic Institute culture.

Many schools teach massage, but only a few excel at it.  What makes the difference?  We found one answer by studying the phenomenal success of Toyota.  Toyota has earned a reputation for quality, reliability and value by depending on every employee to consistently innovate and improve both the working environment and, ultimately, the final product.  By promoting incremental changes from within, this “bottom-up” approach of management style is the heart of kaizen.

At NHI, we pride ourselves on our faculty and staff.  After hiring outstanding people, providing them with constant training, and enjoying low employee turnover, it only makes sense to listen to them when it comes to making a better school.  After all, the person doing the job knows that job better than anyone else.  The kaizen spirit is one of many ways NHI keeps their graduates at the top of the field.
