Now the correct text: As you know, kaizen means continuous improvement. It is a mindset that enables any progress in life. Antikaizen, on the other hand, is a toxic mindset and includes all irrational beliefs that slow down or prevent any improvement and progress.
Yes, indeed. Implementing Kizen or in simple words improving continuously requires developing and changing continuously. And to bring about change is not an easy thing. There is always resistance to change. So kaizen and anti-kaizen exist simultaneously in any organization. However, it depends mostly on how the top management drives this process of change or rather how they implement Kaizen.
Thank you for your response. It shows that you consider resistance to change to be anti-kaizen. What else do you think should be there? Can anti-kaizen exist independently in an organization, for example in a hidden form?
Anti-Kaizen is anything and everything that hinders continuous improvements and change. In simple words, any activity that does not allow improvement to take place or slows down its effect is anti-Kaizen.

Anti- Kaizen will come into the picture only when we are talking about Kaizen. It cant exist independently. However, if the reason for anti-Kaizen is not known it can be said in hidden form.
I also think that kaizen and anti-kaizen always coexist. The factors affecting the mutual proportions may be of interest. I am convinced that considering the whole of phenomena is better than the sum of the parts. Hence, the interaction of kaizen and anti-kaizen gives the entire organization a feature that develops in accordance with the resultant of this interaction. Thus, the advantage of kaizen over anti-kaizen will be understood as development and vice versa as degradation.
