Member Connections: Shine a Light on Your Lean Story
LCI members are transforming the AEC industry every day. From streamlined workflows to safer job sites and more collaborative teams, the impact of Lean practices is both real and measurable. You’re invited to step into the spotlight and share how you’re building better.
LCI has launched several member-driven platforms that create space for individuals and teams to showcase their Lean journeys, highlight achievements, and help others learn from their experience. Whether you’re just getting started with Lean or have years of implementation under your belt, there are four unique ways to contribute:
- Lean in Action: A Member Retrospective – Share lessons learned and proven strategies in this virtual peer-to-peer learning series. These virtual sessions offer an honest look at what worked, what didn’t, and how others can replicate your success.
- “Five Questions With…” – Answer the top questions asked by Lean-curious professionals. This written series offers real-world insights into Lean adoption and helps demystify the journey for those just beginning.
- Project Highlights – Showcase a specific project where Lean made a difference. Whether it’s reduced waste, improved safety, or on-time delivery, your story can inspire others across the AEC industry.
- Company Recognition – Recently honored or featured for your Lean achievements? Let us know, and we’ll amplify your recognition across the LCI community. Add membership@leanconstruction.org to your company’s press release distribution list.
Submissions are open now and can be made directly via the Member Hub.
To ensure your organization is visible and connected, review and if needed, update your listing in the Member Directory. A complete profile helps peers discover your work and build new connections within the Lean community.
As always, if you have any questions on membership, please contact Maryann directly.
