This book presents the mechanics of implementing visuality on the
value-add level known as Work That Makes Sense (WTMS). The
step-by-step WTMS process described in this book teaches operators
a proven method for translating information deficits into visual
solutions that take the struggle out of their day-to-day work. As a
result, operators transform their work area into a work environment
that speaks-a work environment that, by design, shares vital
information in the form of visual devices that help them perform
their day-to-day work with precision and completeness. At the heart
of this visual conversion approach is an element unique to
Galsworth's paradigm called I-driven that recognizes that operators
will pursue self-leadership in the company's improvement
initiatives if they are given the opportunity to learn how to do
so. Also recognized is the fact that this can only happen if
associates are taught-and given the opportunity to learn and apply
a new system of thinking. The author calls this new system visual
thinking. This book provides that learning pathway, in detail,
supported by hundreds of actual visual solutions, developed by
operators who have followed that pathway and become visual thinkers
for themselves-I-driven. They become self-leaders, in control of
their corner of the world and able and willing to share their
strengths with others. In this way, the WTMS process produces a
deep and abiding change in the company's work culture that builds
creativity and ownership. As a result, the organization's
leadership framework widens to include operators. When effectively
applied the WTMS process detailed in this book produces 15% to 30%
improvement in local KPIs, including productivity, on-time
delivery, quality, and costs; these figures are documented and
presented in the pages of this book. Written for operators, this
book includes a wealth of color photographs, the majority of which
are visual solutions created by visual thinkers who have lived this
process for themselves. All are fully captioned and thoughtfully
described. The book also includes twelve tasks that managers
implement in support that they seek on the operator level. WTMS
teaches that visual devices translate information into exact
behavior, embedding and sustaining precision through visual
solutions. Precision is built in by the same operators who execute
it. This is the heart of an I-driven visual enterprise. Once
learned and operationalized, this paradigm allows the organization
to take on any new improvement effort. Organizational alignment and
teamwork have been redefined and operationalized.
