In this podcast, I share an interview I had with Ron Pereira of Gemba Academy. We discussed Lean Six Sigma and Sustainability (of course!).

We define sustainability for the audience to get them on the same page. They we talked about going paperless at work, the volunteer work with Lean Portland, and how people are incorporated into sustainability. I also talk about easy ways to get started.

Thanks to Ron for giving me the opportunity to speak on his podcast. It was quite an honor!

Brion (B):  In this podcast, I share an interview I had with Ron Pereira of Gemba Academy. We discussed Lean Six Sigma and sustainability. First, we defined what sustainability was for the audience to get them on the same page, then we talked about going paperless at work and some of the benefits that may be harder to see initially but can really make it a very cost-effective and environmentally friendly alternative.

I also talked about the volunteer work with Lean Portland,
