Edgar Lizarraga, an entrepreneur in Chino Hills, California, is operating his business using the principles of Six Sigma and Kaizen.
Lizarraga is the man behind the successful Mighty Express, a trackless train ride that runs safely through The Shoppes at Chino Hills every Saturday and Sunday from 3:00 PM to 8:00 PM. During the week, people can hire the Mighty Express for other local events such as picnics and fundraising activities.
Lizarraga used to work for a “veneer manufacturing company and spent most of his hours making sure that production schedules ran efficiently and on time. He studied management techniques like 6 Sigma and Kaizen, business philosophies focusing on continuous improvement.”
Now, working with his own business, he makes sure that a good system is working to ensure a smooth flow of his Mighty Express.
