Game for a LEAN methods training (5S, visual management & standardization of work)
Original language description
The aim of this article is to minutely describe a game designed for training car industry employees. The game’s subject of focus is the area of LEAN methods, specifically the 5S method, visualization, and standardization. While playing, employees encounter problems with quality, mistaking materials, or not utilizing supplies during the process. Players are repeatedly informed that these problems are an illustration of what they face daily during the working process. The game helps them to see 5S as a regular way of thinking, not as the management’s tool to lower wages or force employees to do the clean-up as is commonly and mistakenly believed. At the end of the game, the employees are presented with the increase in performances in individual rounds. This is achieved by a diagram and a chart representing the financial side of the production process, especially with regards to costs. Finally, the article’s conclusion summarizes the results of past trainings which were attended by more than 500 employees from all levels of the company.
