Why is your A3 not working the way it should?
We’ve been copying visible aspects of Toyota’s A3 tool, but not the less visible way the A3 is used at Toyota.
At Toyota, the manager has their learner iterate *throughout the entire process* of using the A3 format. This is different from traditional Western business thinking, and westerners tend to treat the A3 as simply writing a plan.
TOYOTA KATA makes Toyota’s more scientific way of working visible and transferrable, by giving you Starter Kata for practicing it.
Already working with the A3? Add the TK Starter Kata to it, to immediately improve your practice.
