kaizen as a form of marxism?

Kaizen--continuous improvement. Only value-adding processes, managers are there to support the workers and create policy for continual improvement. Maintain and improve. Update the standards. Go to the place were the work is being done. But:

One of the guiding ideas is that we can manage processes. We can control processes, not the people. Does that sound familiar. It should. Read processes as "modes of production." We can't control the people (through politics) but we can control the processes (modes of production). Thus we can manage the people through control of the processes.


Think about it.

I am changing my major.
