Visuals Used for GEMBA

There are metrics and tools needed for GEMBA, this article will discuss all required materials.

Metrics:

Showing Green vs. Red is important when talking about visual management

Production/Quality Visual: “Did we meet our goal? Why not?

USE VISUAL SYMBOLS

Make it stand out

If goals were met, put a thumbs up and move on. There is no need to discuss

If we did not meet goals, this is where you would state the reason why.

If we did not meet production, you ask why and use the Pareto like below to track all the issues and resolve them. 

Monthly Pareto will show what hurdles are in the way when trying to meet daily production goals. 

Every Month you will have a project topic to initiate a project over to create more efficiency. 

Anytime something goes on the Pareto there should be an assigned action item. 

Action Item required fields:

Date Assigned

Due Date

Person Responsible

Status 

Remember: The goal is that everyone knows what the board says, why it’s important, and people CARE!
