I'm wondering about the origins of Kaizen. Specifically, I want to know who was the creator or founder of this concept. Was it an individual, a team, or an organization that first introduced Kaizen? If it's an individual, who is this person and what are their contributions? If it's a team or organization, can you provide some background information about them?
