20 Keys for Workplace Improvement

#1
Hey people!

I was requested to implement the "10 keys for workplace improvement" scoring technique.

I didn't knew about it, but it is a book from Iwao Kobayashi regarding 20 keys inwhich you have to focus to improve your company: 1.Cleaning and organizing; 2.Management of objectives; 3. Improving team activities; 4.Reducing inventory, etc.

I am in Mexico, so I just ordered the book and will take some time to have it here. Meanwhile, Does anybody has something already implemented based on this?

Sorry eduveg, I can't help with the information you are looking for but I would like to say how pleased I am to see you have started posting to the forums. Hopefully you will share the results of your project once you complete it.

I hope so too, because this thread sparked my interest. Not really knowing much about Kobayashi I started searching the web, but I found little more than what has been mentioned here. The 20 points were easy enough to find, but so far I have been able to dig up little detail.

Incidentally, the 20 points seem to have struck home in Germany: I got many hits in german, but once again, containing little detail.

Hi Eduveg,

Did you have any luck implementing the 20 Keys? I was introduced to the tool from the University of Dayton. It is helpful in transitioning to self-directed work teams. If you need more assistance, give me a shout or reply here. Regards, Steve
