my story
Hi, I’m Elena — founder of Lean Edge.
My career started in 2013 on the production floor. That hands-on experience shaped the way I approach improvement work today: keep it practical, make it clear, and focus on results that matter to the people doing the job.
As I moved into quality engineering and operational excellence, I saw how powerful simple, structured problem-solving can be when teams understand it and own it. Lean Edge was built on that idea.
I created Lean Edge because I’ve seen how difficult it can be for teams to solve problems when processes don’t make sense or when improvement tools feel too complicated. My goal is to make Lean practical, simple, and clear, something people actually want to use.
Every training and service offered through Lean Edge was created from real manufacturing experience. And the work doesn’t stop at delivering a course or a certificate, I stay with you until the improvements are in place and the desired goals achieved.
If Lean Edge can support you or your team, we are here to help.
