- When lean was derived from The Toyota Way, it was centered around efficiency. But the brilliance of The Toyota Way lies in its other principles that promote curiosity and thinking differently.

Toyota in general is a case that we all should study. The different mindsets that brought Toyota to where they are now a days is simply incredible
Many companies are cherry picking the Toyota way. It does not work like that. Lean can work and is working but to it to be effective it needs to be in combination with Toyotas no layoff policy. If you make your job so efficient that your job is not needed anymore, wich is the ultimate efficiency, at many companies you would be layed off but at Toyota you will be rewarded. That is a huge difference and in a way key to efficiency.
It is the worst thing that has ever happened to my state it is in the government and it has completely annihilated any human principles that we once used to help people it’s strictly based on cutting services and piling work on people who are not getting paid to do the work of three people it makes it completely impossible to do the job it’s sabotaging the workforce and it is quite frankly psychotic
Calm, collected and articulate. Easily the best Orator that speaks for the course of a common goal.
You learn more from failure than from success. Don’t let it stop you. Failure builds character.
This is brilliant! I agree! I was sent to another department due to light duty restriction and it did help me understand more about the work that I have been working for 6 years.
Always learn something new from Simon. Every time. And I love it!
"It's not no becuase, it's yes if" great idea for communicating with your teams.
Sinek is right to say, the west has graciously expressed lean as a financial thing and I can understand why they struggle to achieve what they want to achieve. Anyone studying Toyota's way must understand and internalize the onion concept. This concept simply means if you are going to peel the union in search of reaching its center (Core) will be more than frustrated than those who will not bother to peel the union. Each peel forms part of the core, just like how teams must be seen. Thanks, Simon for awakening the masses
Be open to embrace different perspectives. Definitely helps Self development. Simon Sinek 💕 💘 💕. 🙏
É sempre um prazer!! :)
Gratidão por compartilhar conosco.

This was great Simon!
*You are Amazing*
Invincible philosophy .
One Idea out of box can revoltuonised the trend, no matters where idea comes from🙏🙏🙏
Diversity of minds, the thing that makes companies thrive.
Finally, thank you.
Titanium Silos of Excellence:)..loved that
Great !!!
Great ❤️
Couldn't agree more with this, as someone who's worked in the change industry, Toyota is probably the prime example used go show how lean works, but nowhere is how they achieved the efficiency Toyota have.
Nice interview
Kaizen is the way to go... 👍 Value for people
Where’s the direct link to the extended content? I get inspired for a couple of minutes but feel deep hunger for the entire conversation.
I have always said that Just in time is a lot more than a production method, is a marketing alignment tool that provide the responsiveness necessary to take advantage to what the customers want and please them on time. From that I derived that marketing shod not be about strategies to sell, but a way to understand the market and align and shape the company to deliver a Real value proposition.
Great
first of all huge fan
and
i would like to know what's the best way to find a mentor
Having different perspectives
Lean was first used in the book “The Machine That Changed The World”. I’ve been told that initially it was to be called “Fragile Manufacturing” but they decided it wasn’t a good idea. The message is right though. It was ruined. Largely by consultants in my opinion. If you see Lean as a people development system, it works much, much better.
Where can we find the full interview?
Incredible person reading this, go after what it is that you want in life! Learn the skills, do whatever it takes! You are capable of anything! I believe in you! ✨
Love - Nat ❤️
Thanks, Nathalie Lazo. I believe in you, too. ❤
Toyota Production System = Human Development System. Most Americans will never understand this.
Where can I watch the full episode
Link to full video please
Brilliant! - They mixed it up with 'efficiency thinking'... in Germany, they additionally mix it up with hierarchy and obedience...
You are the best. 👋
If you are reading on my comment, you are the best person and there is someone who loves you because you changed his whole life. you gave them something to eat or you spoke to them respectfully. I believe in you. You are the best. I don’t know you but I am proud of you 👏
Get a life man!!!
That's it, because we don't need expensive cars, we need dependable cars. Those are for people who understand.
Where's the long form content in interviews Simon?
Lean is all about creating values for the customers which is the same as the core value of Toyota way. there is nothing wrong with Lean, but the people who drive it wrong.
“Lean Team Manufacturing” instead of just …“Lean Manufacturing” 😌
every no because of is on the other side a yes if
You just need to turn it around one way or the other.
And if you look into the early ideas of toyota then lean production was part of it 40 years ago at least what we had seen here in those translated books and groups that were sent from Japan to tell and teach us.
Accounting is always part of the game to differentiate between the good, band and the ugly results otherwise the world would be seen as the brideside even though under the table there are some other parts no one wants to have or look at.
*I dare say, at the of the day, you will be on a long path and surprisingly alone, so take it easy on yourself, don't be serious about what you think. It's just point a of view.*
S/S. Learning by Toyoda Motor Corps is the old world of conservatism mista ! ! Are we living in behind or in front sir ? V.
Simon, what are your thoughts on Paul Akers lean?
He has done a great job of adapting lean principles to his specific situation. Definitely watch his videos.
@@camgere I've read his books and watched almost all his videos! He is a little gung ho with lean for me but it's insanely helpful to have a mindset that looks for ways to improve processes. Has definitely helped me professionally
Good luck with your lean efforts!@@ScrubMilk
Is there some place where I can get more info on the Toyota way (other than the lean perspective)?
There is so much written about this. Lean is one way people apply it but you will find a whole lot more than just that bit.
Check out an awesome book titled The Toyota Way (2nd Edition) by Jeffrey Liker. I fully recommend it.
You may find the writings and the principles that Taiichi Ohno established as the foundation . When he was leading the transformation of Toyota after the war .
Thank you guys for your inputs. Appreciate it.
To clear my muddy question, I do know quite well about the Toyota Way and it is a big deal at the company I work. My question was aimed at the comment S makes that it was never about efficacy and “the numbers” as the Americans got it all wrong. This perspective interest me and I would like to dive in to that but needs a starting point.
Again, Thanks.
@@utahleansixsigmatrainingce5263 cheers mate 👍🏼
true - yet how did they miss out so badly on the EV transition ?
Brilliant comment about Toyota way and it's misinterpretation.
Missing Simon's point. Any business leader will agree that intangible stuff is hard to measure and control, yet plays a big role in the successful operation of the business.
Kaizen works. Lean works. Quantitative KPIs work. The key is to ensure application of tools and principles of all of these under one system.
Operational Excellence has been around for decades.
The Toyota Way is great - it’s just too bad Toyota doesn’t practice it anymore . Since leaving the company I’ve found it more helpful in my new role than at any time when I worked there. The reality is that it really doesn’t mean anything at Toyota anymore - to them it’s an old show horse that the company’s leadership trots out when there is an opportunity to look good in the media. .
I'm presently learning Lean...
Check out Paul Akers book 2 second lean. He makes it sooo simple
Hi Simon, please 🙏Greek 🇬🇷 subtitles in your videos.
how does one find mentors
@Raghav Kheria - You don't really find mentors. Mentors find you. Or more precisely, a person decides to act in that role after they have developed a relationship with you for some reason. Considering that a mentoring relationship can be quite time, attention, and emotions consuming, the mentor must enter the relationship willingly. For mentoring to be truly effective, there must be something in the relationship that is beneficial to both parties.
It is not usually like making a list of people you would like to have as a possible mentor, then approaching one or more of those people to ask them to be your mentor. That does happen on rare occasions, but cannot be relied on as a way to find a mentor.
Do you already have contact with people whose ideas you value on various life or business concerns? If so, you may already have a mentor and just don't recognize it because it doesn't fit the business literature stereotype image. The first step is to strengthen your relationship with those people and increase the level of trust between you and them.
If you have no such existing relationship or person/people whose ideas you value, then decide on a life or business issue that is important to you. Identify people (not necessarily famous people) who have expertise on that issue. Then reach out to them by asking them one specific, limited scope question on the issue. When you ask the question, make it clear that you understand that you are imposing on them, but that you recognize their expertise and experience Don't ask them for an answer to the question. Ask them for an idea or a bit of guidance that will help you develop the answer for yourself. If they reply, they have started the sequence that might lead to them becoming a mentor for you. If they won't fit as a mentor, they may be able to recommend someone else within their network who may be a good fit as a mentor for you.
By following that process repeatedly, you may not find a mentor quickly, but you will increase your network of contacts to whom you can go when you have issues or concerns that you need to solve.
Just remember that networking and building relationships is a two way process, whether or not it leads to mentoring. Always being the one asking for and receiving help or ideas and asking too often will not create relationships, a strong network of contacts, or an effective mentoring relationship.
There are a hundred books on lean. Start with Taiichi Ohno (1988) Toyota Production System, Beyond Large Scale Production. The Toyota Way. New York, Liker, J. K. (2021) is much newer and more of a theoretical discussion of lean. While the Top/Down approach is nice, with senior management buy in, Bottom/Up can work to a certain extent. Start with lean tools (e.g. 5S and Eliminate the 7 wastes). The Toyota Business Practices 8 Step Problem Solving Method is worth learning and using. Failing businesses are often more open to change than successful businesses. Do not try to implement one--piece-flow or Just-In-Time. This should only be done after you have slowly reduced your Work-In-Progress inventory to the minimum.
Scotty Kilmer: I approve of this message

God bless all
Boa tarde!! rsrsrs
There are two take-home aspects of the Toyota/Japanese/Asian Way (both with roots in Confucianism):
1) CANEI, or constant and never ending improvement. This means being meticulous, diligent, attention to and focus on quality, detail, micro-innovations, craftsmanship and pride.
2) Transparency, accountability and probity are anathema.
The result is you've got very advanced, high-tech cars --- but with chronic defects that pop up here and there. When sweeping it under the carpet is no longer tenable, it's massive, damage-control time. Not just Toyota, but Kobe Steel and Takata airbags.
The problem was a japanese solution can't be used for an american problem.
A human solution can be used for an American problem. Toyota has several plants in the United States.
Toyota is so overused
Yet they keep on going
