WEB SERIES – Today, we launch a new documentary series on lean around the world, with the first season focusing on lean in Brazil. In the first episode, we visit the lean clinic on a mission to reduce the burden on cancer in our lives.

Join us on a visit to Instituto de Oncologia do Vale, a lean organization that has become a reference for lean healthcare in Brazil and beyond. Learn about their daily management system, the improvements they have made, and how they have impacted the patient.
Thank you to Lean Institute Brasil, which has supported IOV's transformation, for facilitating the visit.
