Small Changes, Big Impact: The Toyota Production System

Years of manufacturing experience have taught Toyota that small improvements can make a big difference – and they’ve learned
that this approach can help other organizations too. So, for more than twenty years, Toyota has shared its know-how with other
manufacturers, non-profits and community organizations to help them find better ways of doing their day-to-day work. Sharing
ideas this way helps each Toyota partner stay competitive and preserve jobs or support more people in need – and that benefits
us all.

In this 35-minute presentation/Q&A you will learn about Toyota’s learn by doing methodology. Thanks to this hands-on
approach, Toyota empowers organizations to develop people who will surface and solve problems and ultimately lead a culture of
continuous improvement independently.
