Abstract: In the knowledge based economy, organisations are influenced by the quality movement, Kaizen, which plays a strategic role for optimization of organizational capabilities of managers as well as of all the employees. Kaizen represents the philosophy of continuous improvement, until the economic activities inside the organisation reach zero deficiencies. In order to implement in a proper manner Kaizen into the organization, managers must decide what to improve, why to improve, who shall improve, where to improve, how far to improve and how much the changes that will occur will cost. This paper presents several ways of improvement of organizational capabilities by Kaizen strategy implemented in the knowledge based organisation.
