Kaizen Award
Kaizen Club Award
Kaizen is the Japanese art of continuous improvement.
It stresses the need to continually improve the way that things are
done in order to achieve high levels of quality from year to year.
At the club level, it is important to keep this in mind —
if we’re not doing anything to improve our clubs,
we remain stagnant and eventually begin to backtrack.
Each year, District 25 recognizes clubs that has been at least Distinguished for 3 years in a row.
This is a major accomplishment for a club, and District 25
is proud to be able to recognize these clubs
for their efforts both over the past year and in years prior.
Clubs that are Presidents Distinguished 3 years in a row or
longer receive the prestigious District Director’s Quality Award,
which is the highest award a club can receive from the District.
