   Professor Jiro Kawakita was a well-known scholar of ethnogeography in Japan. Through his fieldwork and research on the Himalayan Highlanders of Nepal, he has established a distinct methodology in field sciences and revealed the system of the people, culture, way of life and ecology. His achievements are very widely studied and some of the tools he established are still used today, the main one being the affinity diagram which is a tool used within the KJ Method and provides a structured basis for Lean Strategies International LLC’s ©CURE Methodology.
 
   The Following is a great biography borrowed from: Fukuokaprize.  Please note there are not many biographies on this pioneer, master of the Affinity diagram which is widely used in project management today.  If you have any additional information on this Master, please feel free to share, link and comment in the comments section below.  Your name will be cited with the contributions and we would be more than happy to link to a page of yours if you would like.
