“As an academic, attending Congress is so critical to learn about the advances taking places in the practices of Lean Construction as well as the challenges the industry faces on the frontier. In addition, Congress is a great place to collect thoughts for research ideas that are worthwhile in their impact to the industry and significance to the Lean Construction body of knowledge. Last but not least, the atmosphere and events at Congress allow for natural opportunities to get to know colleagues and develop contacts in the industry to work with on future projects of mutual interest.”

“I’ve attended the LCI Congress eight times as a Lean Coach. The benefits have truly been worth the investment! Having the opportunity to present training to design and construction professionals from around the world has given me exposure that I could never get on my own. I’ve learned so much from the case studies and other presentations, and there is so much quality networking all in one place. Finally, I always leave feeling more motivated and inspired than when I arrived!”
