Make your workplace “speak” to you by visualizing your information. A workplace that speaks to you will act as a catalyst for continues improvements. Visualization tools and approaches like kanban and 5S are crucial in the Lean success stories. Successful Lean companies have made their workplaces speak to them visually for decades.
In this session you will learn why making information visible and visual can have a profound effect in your business. We will go beyond Post-it’s on a board and show different kinds of visualizations and visual signals. You will see examples how to visualize your work-in-progress (WIP), build status, code metrics and more.
Digital information systems are very powerful but they tend to only “whisper” in your workplace. Implemented right, you can make your ALM tools like Team Foundation Server “speak” to you and making crucial information immediately available and able to be acted upon. It is not a choice between analog or digital. It is how you make your information visually “speak” to you.
TED presentation by Tom Wujec titled “The Three Ways the Brain Creates Meaning.“http://www.ted.com/talks/tom_wujec_on_3_ways_the_brain_creates_meaning.htmlWujec has this to say:We make meaning by seeing, by an act of visual interrogation. The lessons for us are three-fold.First, use images to clarify what we're trying to communicate.Secondly make those images interactive so that we engage much more fully.And the third is to augment memory by creating a visual persistence.
