One of the methods we use to strive for continuous
improvement is daily department meetings.
Each area will gather for just a few moments near the start of their
day. The Department Coordinator will
typically lead the meeting, paying particular attention to any new or ongoing
problems.
We’ll also then go over any changes coming, etc., then
give the other team members a chance to offer thoughts or suggestions. Just 5-10 minutes a day, fairly informal (as
you can see), but they are an invaluable tool for improvement.
Here’s the Mount/Finish team gathering for their meeting
one day earlier this week.
