Special Encore Presentation of Doorway 1: 5S on Steroids -- Part 1
Visual Workplace Radio: Let the Workplace Speak - A podcast by Gwendolyn D. Galsworth, Ph.D.
Categories:
Why do so many 5S efforts get stalled? Why do so few get visual? On this show, your host Gwendolyn Galsworth (leading visual expert/award-winning author) begins a detailed discussion of her Ten Doorway framework—starting (of course) with Doorway 1: Visual Order-Visual Inventiveness. This is not just a re-hashing of traditional 5S, with a neat, clean, orderly work area as the outcome. In Galsworth’s approach that just gets us to the starting line. Her goal, by contrast, is robust, operator-led visuality that, in many companies, triggers a 15%-30% increase in productivity and a spirited, engaged, and aligned workforce on the value-add level. Because this process also liberates supervisors from deadly repetitive support tasks, they can instead become leaders of improvement. It will take Gwendolyn several shows to cover the main principles and practices of Doorway 1—that indispensable first step on your journey to a fully-functioning visual enterprise. Tune in. Get informed! Get inspired!
