Description: | Select Guide Rating The second edition of the Shingo Prize-winning The TWI Workbook: Essential Skills for Supervisors has been completely updated to the latest terminology and practice, revised forms and tools, and new examples to demonstrate current TWI practice. It features an entirely new section on Job Safety, a fourth TWI module that was developed in Japan using the identical TWI methodology of the original three programs introduced in the original work. A new chapter on TWI Problem Solving is also included. Since the publication of its Shingo Prize-winning predecessor, TWI programs have seen steady growth in usage. As a true understanding of Standard Work has developed, the need for the TWI skills as fundamental tools to achieve Lean objectives has been solidified.
In addition to a new chapter on the TWI problem-solving methodology, this edition contains a new introduction with a more complete description of how TWI was reintroduced into American industry, including detailed information on the contribution TWI made at Toyota that was not available when the original book was published. |
