Team Training
Beyond the cycle time improvement the team achieved, we now have a consistent changeover process, regardless of operator, and instilled a trust from our workforce that optimizing procedures saves time while making the job easier and less stressful for them.
Cultural change happens when people start seeing opportunities on their own and acting on them without being asked. There is no exact moment when that occurs, but when you see it, you recognize it. It is the most reliable indicator that the model has truly taken root.
The hardest part is not explaining the model, it is conveying the experience of having lived it. The tools can be documented, but the mindset behind them cannot be learned from a manual.
We’ve worked with consultants before, and the pattern is usually the same: they teach you the theory, and then they leave. What was different here with Kaizen Institute was that the theory came with practical application: on the line, with the operators, in the actual space where things needed to change.
This continuous improvement system has delivered, once we reached a certain level of maturity, sustained improvements of several percentage points each year in productivity, year after year, consistently.
I have been deeply inspired by the entire KAIZEN™ methodology since I began to understand this process of small improvements that enhance day-to-day work.
