What is Lean Project management?

Lean is a method that focuses on process oriented improvement. Lean makes use of five principles, namely:

1. Define the value for the client
2. Identify all the process steps with value and eliminate invaluable steps
3. Create flow
4. From push to pull: only supply to the client when they ask for it
5. Perfection, keep improving 

In order to implement this method in a team or organization, the lean method uses three P’s:

1. Purpose: what is the purpose of the team? 
2. Process: How can the process be improved?
3. People: How can we motivate the team members
