Purpose of Change • To prepare the team for how paradigms can effect their ability to be receptive to new ideas • To understand what “traditionally” stops us from accepting change • To learn the importance of welcoming improvements
Change & Improvement Don’t Come Easy Basic premise: To improve, we must continuously change Law of physics: For every action (change), there is an equal and opposite reaction By Nature: People resist change (i.e., look for excuses, wait & see) Why?: Change takes people outside their comfort zones Therefore:The more you change, the greater the resistance The greater the resistance: The more difficult it is to improve (change)

Educators Tell Us We Learn & Understand • 10% of what we hear • 15% of what we see • 20% of what we both see & hear • 40% of what we discuss with others • 80% of what we experience directly or practice • 90% of what we attempt to teach others
So In The Conference Room We Will . . . • Explain concepts (learn from each other). • Provide a vision (clarify concepts). • Give examples (experience). • Have interactive discussions. • Identify roadblocks.
And At The Worksite We Will . . . • Go through a discovery process (advantages & opportunities) • Observe the presence or absence of “lean” concepts and determine why • Collect information • Experience concepts through implementation
