Not quite, Japanese and Europeans do not think like the U.S.. Ever since the Japanese and Europeans accepted the Teachings of U.S. Citizen W.E. Deming; while General Motors, Ford, Chrysler, AMC attempted to destroy W.E. Deming; the W.E. Deming Principles put the Japanese and European Manufacturing ahead of the U.S..

"Dr. Deming's Ideas Dr. Deming's famous 14 Points, originally presented in Out of the Crisis, serve as management guidelines. The points cultivate a fertile soil in which a more efficient workplace, higher profits, and increased productivity may grow.

•Create and communicate to all employees a statement of the aims and purposes of the company. •Adapt to the new philosophy of the day; industries and economics are always changing. •Build quality into a product throughout production. •End the practice of awarding business on the basis of price tag alone; instead, try a long-term relationship based on established loyalty and trust. •Work to constantly improve quality and productivity. •Institute on-the-job training. •Teach and institute leadership to improve all job functions. •Drive out fear; create trust. •Strive to reduce intradepartmental conflicts. •Eliminate exhortations for the work force; instead, focus on the system and morale. •(a) Eliminate work standard quotas for production. Substitute leadership methods for improvement. (b) Eliminate MBO. Avoid numerical goals. Alternatively, learn the capabilities of processes, and how to improve them. •Remove barriers that rob people of pride of workmanship •Educate with self-improvement programs. •Include everyone in the company to accomplish the transformation." http://www.skymark.com/resources/leaders/deming.asp

See how similar the Toyota Way is to the Dr. W.E. Deming Principles. The significant difference between Japanese and European Management is that they consider their Corporation's Contributions to the Community, Society, and Environment; unlike U.S. Corporations. See Michael Moore's Documentary "Where To Invade Next".

I've seen a TV show long ago (or part of a documentary) that said that they indeed have this philosophy but talking to an employee/s there the employees said that stopping the production line is something that is discouraged. I don't think I'll be able to find a source to quote on this this was 10+ years ago I might have been a child back then... — Preceding unsigned comment added by 212.199.106.194 (talk) 11:42, 7 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

It's continuous improvement

Let's not have the 'continuous improvement' vs 'continual improvement' debate here. Please add your view to Talk:Continual improvement process. wcrosbie (talk), Melbourne, Australia 10:45, 9 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
