Monday, February 27, 2012 Find 50 ways to improve your workWhen a new management-level employee was hired by Toyota*, he didn't start working on a management-level job. He was given various tasks to do in the factory despite his decades-long experience in management in one of the Big Three car companies. One of his assigned tasks was to observe a particular factory worker in a highly efficient Toyota factory and come up with 50 ways to improve the work process. Not only that, but they had to be changes for which there was evidence that would result in some combination of less time, less scrap and less strain on the worker. And he had only three shifts to observe the work and implement the changes. Toyota is an organization that is serious about improvement! When was the last time that you improved the way you do your work in 50 ways? Or 5 ways? *from Spear, Steven J. The High-Velocity Edge: How Market Leaders Leverage Operational Excellence to Beat the Competition. Posted at 12:00 AM (permalink)
