KAIZEN AS A BUSINESS PHILOSOPHY IN SPORT ORGANIZATIONS
Abstract
The success of any sports organization, in addition to possessing optimal contingent and quality of all the necessary resources, is conditioned by the proper management systems. Applying appropriate business philosophy (in line with the shape and the specific characteristics of sport organizations) management seeks to achieve its objectives, particularly sports, which are the basis for all other (business) goals of the organization.
For kaizen as a modern business philosophy of its founder (Masaki Imai) said it is continuing work on how to be a better man. If you just say "better" is not a precise definition. Kaizen is primarily a daily and continuous improvement.
When it comes to sports organizations can also talk about the realistic possibilities for the application of kaizen philosophy in their business processes and activities. As in business organizations kaizen system requires involvement of all employees, of course, respecting the specific position, role and responsibilities of individuals in the organizational set up, it is quite logical that the sports organization and this approach may be completely acceptable.
The work is, in essence, deals with the explication of the determinants of Kaizen as a business philosophy and its possible applicability to sports organizations, and as a possible model to create organizational change in them.
