Only new employees need a Visual Standard for every operation. Focus your visual standards on specific challenges. The right use of Visual Standards can help us remember the tricky bits. Every single tiny little thing is overkill and and will reduce the effectiveness of this useful visual tool.

Listen to Gwendolyn this
Thursday at 10am
(Pacific) on
Q: How many ways can your improvement initiative fail? A: Nearly uncountable. Q: How many ways can you succeed? A: Well, that depends on how many of 25 success principles and practices you implement--before and during your roll out. Join us this week as Gwendolyn Galsworth begins her march through the principles and practices she considers mission-critical for a highly-effective improvement process (a visual conversion)--behaviors that build your site's improvement infrastructure. Listen as she explains the first three of seven behaviors that you, as the ranking site executive, need to undertake before the first person gets trained: 1) Name in advance the financial, cultural, and visionary outcomes you want; 2) Set up your accountability team prior to launch; and 3) Identify a vision place--an actual physical location that demonstrates that what you want is not just possible but already exists in inspiring fullness. All before you launch. Tune in/Learn more.

Will I Be the Hero of My Own Life?
by Gwendolyn Galsworth, PhD
What would it be like if every CEO, manager, and supervisor commits to the single cultural outcome of making every employee a hero at work? What would change? What would have to change? And what would result?
At the core of each of us is a deep and abiding need to contribute--a longing to share, and even create, something of lasting value. Not just in our everyday lives but also at work--in fact, especially at work. There is a hero within that wants to master and excel. That hero is us.
In
far too many organizations, the social fabric of the workplace--the work culture--is out of balance. Without a substantive change in that culture, no implementation, however excellent in intent, will be sustainable. And that change must begin at the level of each employee's sense of self and of his/her place within the enterprise.
