Lean AI for mission-driven operators

Hands-on program led by Lean Operators who consistently grew margins by 3–5x. Find what is hurting your margin, fix the root cause, and keep the method running inside the AI assistant you already use.

The Curriculum

Lean AI runs on Lean modules, including A3 thinking, root cause and gap analysis. We work on increasing your margins from week one, and teach you how to use Lean AI to improve your operations and bottom line.

Goal mark
Module One
Week 1

Measure your margin gap

Pin the problem down with numbers: where the margin is today, where it needs to be, and how to close the gap.

The process
  1. Break your margin down by product, customer, and sales/marketing channel to see where it leaks.
  2. Run a quantitative gap analysis identifying current and target states.
  3. Write it up as an A3 you keep working from for the rest of the program.

Module Two
Week 2

Find the root causes

Go from what is happening to why it is happening. Back each root cause with operational evidence before you invest in a fix.

The process
  1. Tighten the problem statement against SMART-P criteria.
  2. Run 5 Whys for a contained issue, or Fishbone when it crosses teams.
  3. Check each root cause against on-the-ground data, so you are fixing the root problem and not a symptom.

Module Three
Week 3

Rank the fixes

Time is money. Learn how to use impact vs effort analysis to rank your fixes by ROI so you can focus your time and effort.

The process
  1. List the countermeasures for each root cause.
  2. Score them on impact against effort.
  3. Choose what to test first, and check it against your mission and values.

Module Four
Week 4

Test, learn, and lock it in

Turn the top fixes into small experiments with clear success criteria, run them, and watch the margin move.

The process
  1. Design each experiment with an owner, a pass or fail number, and a date.
  2. Run the test, learn, and revise loop. If the number doesn't move, go back to your margin gap with what you learned.
  3. Make the fixes that work part of how the company runs, so the margin holds after the program ends.

Frequently Asked

Common questions about 4 Weeks to Higher Margins

Who is this program for?

Mission-driven operators with a working business and a margin that is thinner than it should be. You have revenue, customers, and costs you can look at. You want to know where the money goes and fix it without cutting what the company stands for.

The program is small, 5 to 7 operators, so both the group session and your private hour stay focused on your numbers.

What does the weekly commitment look like?

Two sessions a week: one group session with everyone in the program, and one private hour on your company. Between sessions you pull numbers, run the frameworks in Lean AI, and run your experiments. Expect real work outside the calls.

What is Lean AI?

Lean AI is an MCP server, a small service you connect to your AI assistant. It adds a set of WayaFrames: A3 thinking, gap analysis, experiment design, and impact vs effort. You describe a problem in your own words, and the assistant runs the right method with you. You set it up in week one and keep it after the program.

How is this different from just asking Claude or ChatGPT?

On its own, a general assistant answers whatever you ask, and it will suggest fixes before anyone knows the cause. Lean AI gives it a method: pin down the problem with numbers, find the root cause with evidence, then test a fix. The program adds people who have done it: Na'ama and Vince built that method scaling Cheetah to $150M in revenue and 350+ employees.

Who runs the sessions?

Na'ama and Vince. Both are operators who have built, scaled, and rebuilt companies.

What will I have by the end?

A clear path to increase your margins. A written A3 on your biggest margin problem, root causes backed by data, a ranked list of fixes, and experiments with results. You also keep Lean AI in your assistant, so you can run the same method on the next problem without us.
