The tool is focused on helping teams put in place a simple five-stage funnel and a review process and cadence that are designed specifically for sales associates to help improve their opportunity development #Tetkronix #Kazien #GMKaizen #OneTeam #ForYouForUsForGrowth

As Fortive CEO Kaizen 2024 unfolds, we’re witnessing unparalleled motivation and collaboration, especially from our 13 teams (Fluke Corporation and Fluke Reliability) in both Everett and Eindhoven. It’s inspiring to see such dedication and enthusiasm as they dive into tasks, embodying our belief that Kaizen is not just a practice but a way of life.

A good Kaizen is "learning-by-doing", not just idea debates! :-) Such an honor to spend the CEO Kaizen week with this wonderful team that embodied the true spirit of Kaizen and drove seemingly impossible results all with in a week! Early morning starts and late night finishes seemed to charge this team even more! Advanced Sterilization Products #CEOKaizen Fortive This team displayed: 1. Humility - freed ourselves from our own minds and past experiences, and opened ourselves to learning and improving 2. Inclusion - the week was a perfect example of inclusion in the truest sense of the word, every idea counted and titles were checked at the door! 3. High Expectations - we did not lower the bar, and strived to reach the high expectations set at the beginning of the Kaizen 4. Transparency - fierce debates, aha moments, going back to the drawing board multiple times, more issues, more creative solutions.... all of this in full transparency of the entire team It was a total pleasure. Please accept my gratitude for letting me be part of your team!!

💡 Driving Continuous Improvement through Feedback 💡 I love diving into duty sheets, processes, and data to find ways to improve service quality. Small, incremental changes, embracing Kaizen, have been a key driver to long term success. But what truly drives progress is Gemba, going directly to the source and listening to the team. It’s their feedback that shapes real, actionable improvements and helps us achieve operational excellence. Here’s to creating a culture where continuous improvement is always in motion. 🚀 #Kaizen #Gemba #SituationalLeadership #VisionaryLeadership #GenerationalLeadership #OperationalExcellent
