Paul – GREAT meeting this morning, thank you for letting me be a part of your team for a bit. Most enjoyable items for me were:
- Cleaning!
- Openness in looking for problems, asking why 5 times and getting to the root problem, and how to improve.
- Going through the 8 wastes using real life scenarios.
- Being aware of your surroundings (zebras and crocs – what a brutal, but motivating video).
A fun saying that goes with survival:
“Each day, a gazelle wakes up knowing he must outrun the fastest lion to survive. Each day the lion wakes up and knows he must outrun the slowest gazelle to survive. For us, that means every day, when the sun comes up, we better be running!”
You have an awesome culture there, open, honest, hardworking, not afraid, humble, and ready to work. Simply, put, you have an AWESOME team there!
The best is yet to come!
