Impruver Accelerator

Continuous Improvement, more than anything else, is a habit. The best way to form a lasting habit is to do it daily over a sustained period. Scientific studies and research have confirm that it takes anywhere between 18 and 254 days to form a new habit. Working with an experienced coach can bring the average habit forming time to about 21 days.

The Impruver Accelerator is designed to help you develop the habit of making one improvement per day using a combination of Continuous Improvement Software, Certified Coach, and a Supportive Community of others on the same journey. James Clear, author of Atomic Habits, famously stated that getting 1% better every day leads to a 37.7x improvement over the course of a year. Impruver’s mission is to scale the development of the incredible habit of daily improvement throughout entire enterprises, institutions, and for personal use. Can you imagine the rate of growth that your company can experience if every single person makes one improvement in the right direction, with the help of a Certified internal or external CI Coach, applying the scientific method to validate the effectiveness of their improvements on a daily basis? The results would be astronomical! In fact, mid-sized food manufacturer, World Technology Ingredients (WTI), was able to increase production output by 97% in 90 days using Impruver.

Aristotle said that “We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence then is not an act; it’s a habit.” True operational excellence cannot be achieved by copying and pasting the most visible elements of what other companies are doing without forming the habit of daily improvement within the people. Leaders who have not developed the habit of daily improvement cannot sustain Continuous Improvement because they are unable to help others develop this habit. This is also true for sports or any other area where excellence is desired. Professional athletes practice daily in the presence of their coach to improve their game to reach the top of their game. Leaders and coaches need to develop the habit of daily coaching cycles to reinforce the habit of daily improvement within their teams.

Once this habit is formed, tools such as Root Cause Analysis, Value Stream Mapping, OEE, 5S, Gemba Walks and others can have real meaningful impact. Information, analysis, and discussion without a vehicle to translate it into action can also be a form of waste. One-and-done improvements don’t sustain when people lack the mindset and habit of daily improvement. Daily Improvement requires a person to constantly be in the mode of looking for the next improvement idea, big or small. Without constantly being this mode of thought, it becomes easy to step over problems and fall back into survival mode right after a change is made.

Join the Impruver Accelerator and develop the transformative habit of daily improvement, then coach others to do the same; altering the course of their lives, your business, and the entire world!
