English term or phrase: lean
This does not mean "low on fat"! The context is some new form of management.
Is there any French equivalent?
I can provide this context :"extensive operations experience that includes LEAN continuous improvement and statistical applications".
I have already come across this term and succeeded in bypassing it, but now feel that it must be faced clearly.
Any possible help?
