“Toyota OB seemed to be like youngmen so full of energy, they in fact looked like young boys”.
They were confident in what they have been working on for the long years, and expressed it to us today. It was a pleasure to us.”
“I was able to learn about Toyota’s kaizen(improvement) method and its philosphy today. With such basics, I am looking forward to having the tour tomorrow at the actual Toyota factory.”
“I very much enjoyed communicating with the Toyota people. They are highly motivated.
They seem to be able to continue their work with the same behavior for the next 20 years.
Questions and answers were also valuable.”
“This morning at the practical kaizen(improvement) seminar, we were effective by 35% without making investments. When we first tried to make kaizen(improvement) plans we came up with ideas that require money. In fact, we tend to solve things with money.
I found today for the first time that there are improvements we can make within current circumstances without making investments.”
“Noticed that Toyata managers including superiors, are the coachs that are playing the role of teachers.”
All the staff are trully glad to know that we were able to communicate with our guests who came all the way from Germany, providing exposure to the Japanese kaizen(improvement) culture. Thank you very much for your attention.
