What Is Gemba Day at LCI Congress?

Gemba Day takes place on the last day of LCI Congress and gives attendees the chance to “go to work” and apply what they have learned throughout the week. Each Gemba Walk is led by an experienced, Lean-practicing coach who facilitates discussions and guides attendees through front-line work processes. Recent coaches have said they benefited from the participants’ observations and process improvement suggestions as much as the participants benefit from seeing and engaging in the discussions!
