Creating a Visual Workplace

One of the most fundamental ways to create a high-performing workplace—and lock in the success of continuous improvement efforts—is to create a Visual Workplace.

A visual workplace guides employees to do the RIGHT thing at the RIGHT time. It reinforces best practices and promotes adherence to process standards, which leads to fewer errors, reduced risk of injury, and more consistent output quality.

Visuals make work easier to learn and perform, less costly, and more joyful to accomplish. And—because answers to workers’ questions are built into the workspace—it gives workers confidence.

In this course, you’ll learn:

• The four types of visuals and the accompanying questions that visual workplaces answer
• A six-step process for creating a visual workplace
• How to conduct a current state assessment to discover information gaps that visuals can fill
• The characteristics of effective visuals
• How to roll-out, sustain, and spread visuals to other parts of the organization

The uninterrupted viewing time for this course is 55 minutes.
