Visual Workplace Radio: Let The Workplace Speak

What does driving look like when you are a visual leader? It looks like a Visual War Room—a space that is intensely focused on paying special daily attention to a narrow group of time-sensitive objectives on which the daily life of your operations depend. These are not a loosely-held array of KPIs—quality, safety, cost, and delivery—that you and your operations team monitor and check but a set of tightly-defined measures, specifically chosen by the ranking site executive. This week, your host and visual expert, Gwendolyn Galsworth, maps out the third tool of visual leadership for the executive: the War Room—how to structure it, when to schedule it, how to advance it and where to begin. Along the way, she outlines and corrects the most common War Room mistakes and mis-conceptions. Listen as she describes the key role your continuous improvement leaders can play in making a War Room a success and why the best War Room teams meet daily but for only 19 minutes. Tune in/learn more.
