	When adopting lean management, the people responsible needs to be aware that it is a long-term commitment and there must be a willingness to change within the whole team. Standardization of processes is a popular way to ensure more efficiency in the process but these standardizations have to be implemented and communicated clearly and continuously. The lean tool can be used in many ways, and it is important to settle on one way of using the tool to avoid confusion between employees and project managers. Providing training and visual aids can help align continuous processes between project managers and employees.<ref name="stand">C. Murray; E.

	Lean management can be implemented within a team, department, and whole organization. ~~(REF:~~ https://kanbanize.com/lean-management/implementing-lean) Before implementing lean management it is important to set clear and manageable goals for the team and communicate them. For project managers who might lead a team toward lean management could for example set goals to optimize the workflow to finally make faster deliverables. The implementation method is very similar to the PMI standard model of managing change.

	Lean thinking principles are designed to remove waste from a process and an organization.
