Charanjit (CJ) is one of the most brilliant and hard-working people I've had the pleasure to work with. His understanding of lean methodology and how it applies to the workplace is second to none. I've had the opportunity to work with CJ on multiple occasions and each time he has found improvements that have saved the company millions of dollars. He is passionate, driven, and will go above and beyond expectations. I would highly recommend any company looking to improve their business processes and adopt a culture of continuous improvement to engage CJ.
Jeff Young Chief Operating Officer & Chief Financial Officer, Mera Cannabis Corp. Jan 2025 · via LinkedIn recommendation
Mr. Charanjit is an extremely knowledgeable lean expert with many years of experience! My interactions and learning experiences have been beneficial to not only myself, but many of my team's involvements as well. We have partnered in executing a combined team of over 70 associates to a rewarding Green Belt certification in Lean methodologies, as well as best business practices to 4 Black Belt members. Thank you CJ for the rewarding lessons in class and life.
Chris Campbell Plant Manager, Dura-Line Apr 2024 · via LinkedIn recommendation
We just finished up over 6 months of Lean Training with CJ. It was quite the journey. CJ lives and breathes Lean and taught us to spot waste and understand value-added vs. non-value-added processes almost immediately. Over 100 process improvements later, 30 of us are now Green Belt Lean Certified and strong supporters of one-piece flow and stop-and-fix! If you're thinking of going Lean or need a refresher to engage your team, contact CJ — you won't be disappointed.
Dave Stephens Operations Manager, Mirion Technologies (Canberra) CA Jan 2020 · via LinkedIn recommendation
Exceptionally talented and passionate professional with goals of teaching Lean Methodologies, Project Management and Business Dynamics. I have taken away many learning capabilities to apply into my professional career as well as personal.
Chris Campbell Plant Manager, Dura-Line Feb 2022 · via LinkedIn recommendation
CJ Bawa is a true student and practitioner of Lean / Six Sigma who has perfected the art of teaching these methodologies using simple techniques which simplify and clarify the ideas important to learning Lean.
Easton Lewis Production Manager, DESA Glass Dec 2019 · via LinkedIn recommendation
I had the pleasure of partaking in CJ's Green Belt Lean training and was very impressed with his coaching methods. Enthusiastic, passionate and engaging only begins to describe CJ's approach while coaching our group of 20 leaders. His real-life, hands-on experience was evident and easily transferable to our automotive manufacturing setting. Lean project presentations by our teams to close out the course indicated that CJ's coaching was actually being applied in the workplace — which makes this training gold!

Jonathan Di Tosto, P.Eng., CSCP Vice President, Supply Chain – Global Snacking, McCain Foods Jan 2021 · via LinkedIn recommendation
During my role as VP of Certification with the PMI-CTT Chapter I got to meet CJ. As part of my job to evaluate a trainer and his course, I attended CJ's Lean White Belt training. I was pleased to see how CJ was positive and interactive even in a virtual format — no doubt CJ knows what he's doing, enriching his sessions with engaging learning games and inspiring videos. I recommend him for yourself or your organization.
Henry Hamud, P.Eng., PMP, PMI-RMP Manager, Proposal Management, Projects & Field Services, BWXT May 2020 · via LinkedIn recommendation
As a former software instructor, I can relate to the challenges of teaching on-line — CJ made it look easy. He quickly and easily navigated the class through the usual challenges of online instruction and got to the material fast. His personality shines through, he made learning fun while challenging, and ensured all students developed a solid understanding. I would highly recommend CJ as an instructor on any program.
Charles Jansen Director of Operations, Employment and Social Development Canada May 2020 · via LinkedIn recommendation
I can recommend CJ as a person with deep knowledge and great skills of modern business solutions. He is very thorough in everything he does and can be depended upon to get the job done. CJ delivers outstanding training towards achieving operational excellence through his result-based training methods. His leadership and organizational skills have been invaluable in aligning process and people towards lean thinking.

I enjoyed my Yellow and Green Lean Belts training with CJ. His sessions are energetic, informative and engaging. I am really excited to begin implementing all the things I have learned here.
Raman Boopathy, M.Eng, PMP, LSSGB Service Engineering Manager, Customer Engineering Turboshafts, Pratt & Whitney Feb 2019 · via LinkedIn recommendation
Excellent, and most of all, very practical in the delivery of the Lean and Six Sigma material. CJ is a star and his humility went a long way to create a safe environment for all the teams to share their real-life experiences. Well done!
Viven Moodley, PMP, CSM Program Manager, NAV CANADA Feb 2019 · via LinkedIn recommendation
I had the pleasure of taking the Lean Six Sigma Yellow Belt Certification program with CJ. He is extremely knowledgeable and passionate about his work and it carries within his teachings. He was very interactive and engaging throughout the entire course. I would highly recommend him to anyone in search of a consultant and/or an instructor — his years of experience within various industries is a huge asset.

I retained CJ to work with us at Metrolinx as we embarked on a transformation of our Bus Maintenance program. CJ was key to our program of optimizing the way we inspected buses by eliminating waste and increasing velocity. CJ's approach is very practical and provides rapid results. Whether it is for training or Lean consulting, I highly recommend CJ and his team.
Keith Sheardown Director, Infrastructure Maintenance, Network Rail Consulting Oct 2025 · via LinkedIn recommendation
CJ has been an amazing mentor. He has opened our eyes to inefficiencies in our clinic layout and workflow. He was there every step of the way — from starting conversations with our clinical staff, patients, referring physicians and shareholders, to guiding us on how to implement our process changes. He was pivotal in the groundwork required for continuous monitoring of our cardiac clinics' key performance indicators.
Edith Dell Genetic Counsellor / Operations Manager, Pace Cardiology Oct 2019 · via LinkedIn recommendation
CJ is engaging and enthusiastic. He helped our team focus our Lean energy on the right processes to have the greatest impact.
Lisa McDonough Chief Executive Officer, Vaughan Public Libraries Sep 2019 · via LinkedIn recommendation
If you are a people manager wanting to build a great team, I would strongly recommend taking the path of Lean with CJ. Never did I imagine how much value my team could get until the last day of training. Now I have a full staff complement that are eager to be champions of Lean within our organization. I'm excited to be a change agent along with my team with your knowledge and support!
Vincent Noome Senior Manager, IT Infrastructure, ERCO Worldwide Sep 2019 · via LinkedIn recommendation
I first started working with CJ through the PMI Lakeshore Chapter's Lean Yellow Belt Certification course. It was immediate that you could tell CJ had the experience and could walk the talk when it comes to Lean and Six Sigma. We have continued to engage CJ, and are in the process of having our entire IT team become proficient Green and Yellow Belts.
Thomas Wardman Head of Operations, Collège IC Jul 2019 · via LinkedIn recommendation
CJ is an enthusiastic, engaging and passionate Lean Trainer and Coach. Upon completion of my Yellow Belt Training course I have been able to apply the learned Lean tools and techniques to initiate our Hoshin Kanri journey by facilitating the creation of our Vision and Mission, and developing our departmental and divisional dashboards. We are well underway in developing a culture of continuous improvement.
Lucy Pasianotto Manager, PMO Controls and Reporting, City of Vaughan Sep 2018 · via LinkedIn recommendation
I met CJ through a conference and ended up engaging him to provide Lean service delivery for the City of Barrie Environmental Operations. During the engagement it became clear that our perception of process was not as well defined as we thought. Through his insight, tenacity and passion in process improvement, we were able to redefine our own understanding of process and how it could benefit our operational effectiveness. CJ's passion is contagious and benefits the operational world.
