Being Lean was written to help everyone to improve their quality of life, no matter what situation they’re in. I sincerely hope that it’s given you a whole new perspective and assists you in making positive changes. But Being Lean isn’t just a book, it’s a lifestyle and I’d love to know your thoughts so we can continue to develop the art of Being Lean together.

Packing, unpacking and being organised has never been easier with the LeanPac System.
The System of modular products that we have created, allows travellers to easily access what they need, when they need without having to waste time hunting through a bag. The lean methodology saves space and saves time. And, that’s what we are all about!
The feedback we have received on our product line tells us that as travellers become more proficient in using our luggage, the experience continues to get even better. Who knew?! The products don’t change, but the thinking does, especially for newbie lean thinkers. Our approach here at LeanPac is to engage with a like-minded group of regular travellers, just like us, rather than to have a huge volume of sales. We want the LeanPac System to make your travels easier. Having a community of people who believe in lean as much as we do is important to us at LeanPac. We firmly believe in the lean methodology and we are confident that you will too!
The current product line is our very first version to market and is reasonably priced to entice every traveller out there to ‘go lean’. We want to spread the word of the lean methodology through our products and fine-tune our designs, in the ethos of continuous improvement which we take serious. We want to make the products even better with the feedback we get from the LeanPac community.
Our Lean Team is dedicated to creating a community of everyday lean thinkers to create a line of products that facilitates lean travelling and living. Join us in the lean movement and enjoy a more streamlined, straightforward travel experience than you could ever have imagined!

The Lean Shop - The shop is filled with products & gadgets I deem Lean in one form or another. They all in some form or another have saved me time, save effort, gave an edge and/or help me achieve & standardise quality outputs of my daily life. There is nothing here that I do not own or have used myself. If I am not able to source the exact product I own or have used before, an alternative have been chosen and tried & tested by myself or members of the Being Lean team. You will see the lean traits of each product spelt out in the product description. As this is a shop to share Being Lean, it is a “haphazard” shop of different products hence sourcing them have not been easy or cheap. You may be able to find some of these product better value somewhere else due to bulk buys & other factors, so please do conduct your own research & do your business case. But if you are kind enough to want to or fortunate enough to be able to support this website, we have priced competitively to cover cost plus a 10% markup. Browsing is free, so please browse & get Being Lean ideas to enhance your quality of life! HAPPY BROWSING & BUYING!
Coming Soon! Please Sign Up here to received notifications of the shop launch.
Hi, I’m Michelle Leong and I’m a self-confessed Lean fanatic, but only because I’m so focused on doing what makes me happy and living life to the fullest. I am a dedicated Lean practitioner with almost 20 years experience in changing people’s lives and businesses for the better. I was part of the team that introduced lean to the construction industry in a government-funded Construction Lean Improvement Programme (CLIP). I also helped translate and developed the Business Improvement Technique (BIT) NVQ qualification into Construction from the manufacturing industry and hold the highest level in that qualification and am an accredited assessor.
My biggest passion – aside from Lean living of course – is traveling. I’ve travelled to a total of 50 countries and have around 150 cities under my travel belt and, being a massive foodie too, restaurant and cuisine sampling along the way is inevitable & prolific.
I started practicing lean around 20 years ago and since, Being Lean and healthy living is a necessity to fuel my ambitious lifestyle. Over the years I’ve nailed packing lean and maintaining an exercise routine on the go. I’ve found that Being Lean allows me more time for the things that matter including scuba diving. I’ve racked up 450 fair-weather dives with my PADI Advanced Open-Water certification and I’m not finished yet!
Being Lean is an absolute necessity to enable my quality of life. Discovering and practising lean has helped me to live the life I love without compromise and I sincerely hope my book, this website and its resources and community will do the same for you.
Based on a recognised and proven scientific methodology and approach currently adopted by over 15 different industries to stay competitive in the market for the past 3 decades. Never before, has it been applied and translated to and for individuals for personal development in ALL aspects of one’s life. Instead of achieving quality of outputs in terms of products and services by organisations, it helps individuals achieve quality outputs in their daily living specifically at home, in health, when travelling and at work.
The reader will not only view the majority of aspects in life we see as chores differently but will become equipped with the correct tools and knowledge to reduce their stresses and become more effective and efficient human beings each and every day by taking the lean approach. This book allows the reader to gain an advantage on the day and subtly changes the thought process when it comes to aspects of life we rarely consider doing differently or perhaps did not even think we could change simultaneously closing down bad habits and creating good ones.
Focusing on home, health, travel and work, there is undoubtedly valuable information and tips to be had from this book that will change how you perceive your time making sure you get the most done in as little time and effort as possible. Along with essential reading, the book provides perfectly placed illustrations to complement its priceless advice.
The writer initially takes you through a process to understand how and why we should make daily changes to become lean in everything of importance to us and then how to implement these with very positive results. Each focus area is systematically broken down analysed and evaluated, then supported with real life examples to make sure this hits home with the reader.
This book is an essential read for everyone! Who wouldn’t want to rationalise their life, freeing up more time to do the most important and enjoyable things to them? Identifying and then creating opportunities to become well balanced and generally happier is the ultimate outcome from this book
