2016 - Webinar On Toyota Kata - Wax On, Wax Off (in partnership with ASQ Lean Enterprise Division)

Description :
What is a Kata? A Kata is something most often associated with martial arts. It is a routine you practice purposefully with intent of making that pattern a habit. Bike riding, driving and typing are all Katas. Once you learn to ride a bike and it becomes second nature, you no longer have to concentrate on the skill of riding the bike, but are now able to focus on getting to your destination.
Ask yourself what patterns exist and are reinforced in your own organization. Are these routines supportive or obstructive to meeting your improvement goals? The improvement Kata is specific routine for improving, adapting and innovating. It is scientific and goal-directed, not a random disconnected reaction to problems. The overall goal, as with any Kata, is to make the routine of the improvement Kata a habit that happens almost unconsciously. This happens through deliberate, coached practice in daily work.
This session will introduce participants to the concepts of the improvement Kata, how to use the approach to create their own internal coaches, and how companies are using the improvement Kata as a structured approach to problem solving and goal achievement.
