MANAGERS AND ENGINEER ECONOMISTS USERS OF THE LEAN SYSTEM FOR THE CONTINUOUS IMPROVEMENT OF PERFORMANCES

Romania faces just like other countries from Europe and beyond, economic and social challenges combined with a growing number of qualifications (specializations) profitable for the people with higher education, and also with secondary education, which was transferred to other countries because it’s well educated and much cheaper. Since the global the economic crisis in 2008, the combined rate of unemployment and employment under the professional qualification has continuously grown. Young people have been particularly affected by this crisis. In a sick state, ground by corruption, with a subsistence economy, like ours, the continuous improvement of the managerial-economic performances is the main scope of managers and engineer-economists. This scope has an important reason for managers and engineer-economists to use the Lean system in their managerial activities. Additionally, innovation is a solution which applied in the LEAN system leads to the continuous improvement of performance.
