Lean coach, analyst

Janne is a data expert who combines the skills of a Lean consultant and a data scientist in one package. He has worked for nearly ten years as an internal development consultant for companies, with around five of those years focused on Lean.

He believes that inefficient work frustrates everyone in an organization. When everyone knows what is expected of them, work becomes both more effective and lighter.
