Those who’ve been around in this lean / continuous improvement journey recognize that not all events are the same. Not all kaizen teams are created equal. Some events are great, some events kind of dissapoint.
The difference in the outcome, is often determined by the preparation. The preparation is a symptom of the teams willingness to improve, their commitment to the outcome and adherence to our process.
So how do we make all events better, how do we raise the standard? The answer is simple: use the kaizen event charter template.
Benefits of using a Kaizen Event Charter Template
The template is just a template, an excel file. But the power lies in the structure and how it helps team to organize themselves:
- Make sure we all agree on the problem to solve, why will we do this kaizen?
- What are the KPIs we want to influence and how to track success
- What are our concrete deliverables
- From whom do we have commitment to participate actively
- What are the preparations needed, who’s accountable and by when can we review it
