5S is a very good tool but in occident sometimes people interpret as aesthetics, I were working 10 years as General Director of Lerma Plant of Mitotoyo in México, I undertood that you need apply 5S firstable to your brain, as an example you should sort first your ideas inside your brain before you do externally with plain things.
