We present a simple and effective procedure to improve the finite temperature effective potential so as to satisfy the renormalization group equation (RGE). With the L-loop knowledge of the effective potential and of the RGE coefficient function, this procedure carries out a systematic resummation of large-T as well as large-log terms up to the Lth-to-leading order, giving an improved effective potential which satisfies the RGE and is exact up to the Lth-to-leading T and log terms. Applications to the one- and two-loop effective potentials are explicitly performed.
