Enjoy these previews of a new lean training series from our sister site, 360PerformanceCircle.com. The series, Creating and Sustaining Lean Improvements, includes this valuable two video set: Nemawashi, Rapid Implementation after Considering Many Options. Often design and other key decisions are made quickly and independently without considering all the possibilities, leading to a less than optimized situation. Nemawashi is about making decisions slowly by consensus, thoroughly considering all options; and implementing rapidly. This change in philosophy from how we typically make decisions should have an important impact on your business --not only in how your company makes decisions, but how you also make personal decisions. It’s not about making quick decisions; it’s about making wise decisions. This training session will demonstrate how Nemawashi can be carried out effectively, ensuring that many options are considered by a team and that consensus is reached throughout the process. This in turn ensures that the final decision or design will be able to be implemented rapidly.
