Moog QuickSet “Visualizes” The Shingo Prize

What do you do when you want to challenge for The Shingo Prize—but know that lean is not the right place for your company to start? When Moog QuickSet (outskirts of Chicago) faced that question, its answer was: We need to begin with operator-led visuality. Join us this week on The Visual Workplace, when Gwendolyn Galsworth (your host and visual workplace expert) interviews Brian Hallstrom, Operator Division Manager at QuickSet, and Jay Alfonso, engineer, supervisor, and new visual workplace coach/trainer/coordinator in charge of visuality on the production floor. Learn about their roles in the visual conversion underway at QuickSet—along with early victories, challenges, and personal changes. Hear what Brian and Jay stay glued on and why there are miles to go before ANYONE “sleeps.” You’ve heard Galsworth present the elements of her model for the past 30 weeks. Now it’s time to examine them in action, warts and all. This is a live show. Get ready to call in with comments and questions.
