Kaizen and Creativity: How Inventions Shape Our Everyday Life with Brian Fried
Description
In this episode of The Samurai Way, I sits down with Brian Fried, an inventor, entrepreneur, and mentor known as The Inventor Coach. With 15 issued patents and over 19 years of experience, Brian has turned everyday frustrations into innovative products, from space-saving egg trays to clever paper towel solutions.
As founder of the National Inventor Club and creator of the Inventor Smart Community, Brian has built platforms where inventors can learn, collaborate, and bring their ideas to life. He shares how the Japanese principle of Kaizen—constant improvement—guides his work and why true innovation must serve others, aligning closely with the spirit of Ikigai.
