What Past Attendees Are Saying...

38

Absolutely amazing! Coming in I knew the technical side of TPS being in the Toyota family for 15 years but understanding the purpose, why and how to deploy was really eye opening for me. Really one of the best training I have ever received.

32

Great experience! Very informative, hands-on seminar. Activities to understand and apply principles covered in lectures. Mike is very engaging and open to questions and feedback. Met great people from other industries and was able to learn from them and relate to their problem-solving. Mike takes into consideration specific topics the group wants to cover or situations they would like to address and tailors the course to the needs of the attendees.

19

This course offers an abundance of learning and growth opportunities on an organizational level, as well as on the individual level.

7

I am leaving the course energized to make a difference in my organization.

39

This course was great in helping me, as a new leader, understand the principles and how to effectively apply the tools learned. I definitely recommend taking this course, no matter your experience level.

1

I have earned two engineering degrees and an MBA over the course of my career. I have gone through Lean certifications, and I am a Six Sigma Black Belt… In all those courses, the human element and the culture, which I know are foundational, were briefly glossed over. You guys have the “secret sauce” to true Lean deployment.

34

The experiences and insight really helped me to challenge my baseline assumptions about how I think my organization should function. I am returning to work re-motivated to support my teams and create the problem-solving skills that we all want to see.

37

Engaging Lean leaders with real-world experience at many levels within the Toyota organization. Their practical knowledge and engaging style drive home the points presented in a way that sticks with the team. Great content presented by outstanding teachers and relevant to any industry.

16

This is a real “where the rubber meets the road” learning experience. Highly suggested.

35

Meeting other practitioners, sharing experience, and going to see with the tours were important elements that made this course high-value for me. Mike brought many key concepts and lessons together that showed how true experts like him apply the Toyota Culture to create daily improvement practices which is the most valuable investment for any organization.

40

I have attended many events in my career, and I can say with certainty that this is the best and most helpful one I have been part of. I highly recommend it to professionals in any industry and to entire groups or teams, if possible.

18

As an individual starting on my lean journey, the learning experience has been invaluable. I’m excited to start my journey with these principles as my foundation. Thank you!
