In this episode, Greg Jacobson and Mark Graban share memories and stories of Chris Burnham, who passed away recently.

Greg and Mark talk about being guests on Chris's podcast, The Lean Leadership Podcast.

Here is the webinar that Chris did for us as part of the KaiNexus series. And he was part of this panel discussion about virtual improvement.

We dedicate today's KaiNexus Continuous Improvement Podcast episode to a remarkable individual whose loss has been deeply felt within the Lean community. Chris Burnham, a Lean thinker, a podcast host, and a leader in the field, recently left us, creating a void which has been challenging to navigate. This episode serves as a tribute to Chris's life, his work, and his indelible influence on those fortunate enough to cross his path.

In addition to his brilliance as a Lean thinker, Chris's exemplary character shone through in his role as the host of the Lean Leadership Podcast. His hunger for knowledge and openness to new ideas defined many of his interactions. In 2015, Chris kickstarted his podcast series by inviting Mark Graban aboard as his inaugural guest - beginning a progressive journey through the realm of Lean thinking and practices.
