Our mission begins through our core belief
in helping YOU get to the future first. It is this
belief and working with forward thinking thought leaders
and clients that has moved the center from a small
start-up at the University of Dayton, to one of the
nation leaders in lean learning events.
Our history started at The University of Dayton in
Dayton, Ohio in 1986. Under the entrepreneurial
leadership of Ms. Carol Shaw, The Center for Competitive
Change has grown to become one of the leaders in
manufacturing lean education and consulting services.
With this introduction of lean learning, by 1989 The
University of Dayton became the first university in the
nation to conduct a full-Kaizen program with the
Shingitjutsu master, Mr. Chihiro Nakao. The University
promptly conducted Kaizen training for business leaders,
consultants as well as many of its own faculty. This led
to the beginning of the Center’s offerings of public and
private Kaizen programs. By 1993, the Center parlayed
its growing reputation in the industry by offering
several learning events on lean manufacturing,
maintenance and reliability, visual workplace and other
leading-edge lean topics for the manufacturing industry.
In 1999, the Center broadened its offerings to
include more world-class seminars for business and
industry. Today we’re working side-by side with many
companies to help improve the way they conduct their
business practices and processes – building a lean,
competitive enterprise. The Center has the most
comprehensive education package in lean and reliability
available anywhere and we have helped to save our
clients millions of dollars.

The Center’s team includes 33 leading experts in the
fields of reliability, lean manufacturing,
