Under time pressure, almost every leader defaults straight back to spot-and-correct: pointing out what's wrong, on the spot, in front of the team. The walk looks the same from the outside. What actually happens on it is completely different — and the workforce always knows which one they're getting.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eGemba Walk Training is a complete, ready-to-teach Lean \u0026amp; Continuous Improvement course built for plant, site and operations managers, team leaders and supervisors, and EHS or continuous-improvement professionals who want their walks to build trust and surface real problems — not quietly feel like inspections. It's written the way a 40-year industrial veteran would explain it over coffee, not the way a Lean Six Sigma textbook would: plain English, real workplace examples, and a method you can actually repeat.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhat sets this course apart is THE GEMBA LOOP — a four-step method that turns \"go and see\" into something structured: OBSERVE (watch a full cycle in silence, compare standard to actual, say nothing yet), ASK (\"help me understand…\" — listen more than you talk), AGREE (one action, one owner, one date, out loud), and CLOSE (report back before looking for anything new). Skip a step, or take them out of order, and the walk quietly turns back into a disguised inspection — this course shows you exactly what tells the two apart, and why the difference decides whether people keep raising problems or start hiding them. The flagship resource in the bonus pack is a genuinely usable Gemba Walk Observation \u0026amp; Follow-Up Log — a per-stop record of what was observed, standard versus actual, the question asked, the action agreed and its owner, plus an escalation trigger section — alongside a Route\/Cadence Planner to take the habit from one walk to a full site rollout.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePerfect for plant and site managers, operations managers and team leaders, EHS and continuous-improvement professionals, and anyone starting a Lean or safety walk programme with no prior Lean Six Sigma knowledge assumed.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWHAT YOU GET\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e86-slide PowerPoint deck (PPTX + PDF) - fully editable, ready to present or adapt\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e23-page A4 training handbook (DOCX + PDF) with a clickable contents page\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e18-page A4 participant workbook with recall exercises, scenarios and an answer key\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eKnowledge Check: 25 questions with an answer key and an 80% pass mark\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e18-page instructor notes with half-day and 90-minute timetables, a live practice walk, talking points and delivery tips\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e12-page learner notes - one page per module, ready to fill in during training\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOne-page A4 Quick Reference sheet for the desk or shop floor\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e5-page printable Pre-Walk Checklist (escalation-trigger decision aid)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEditable landscape A4 Certificate of Completion\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e14-page Bonus Resources: the Gemba Walk Observation \u0026amp; Follow-Up Log (flagship resource), Route\/Cadence Planner, 90-day programme plan, question bank and waste-spotting sheet, plus an Excel Gemba Walk Action Tracker\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eInstant digital download\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHOW TO USE IT\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDownload straight after purchase and you're ready to run the course the same day: present the slides as-is, print the handbook and workbook for your team, and hand out the certificate at the end. Once your leaders know the Gemba Loop, take the Observation \u0026amp; Follow-Up Log on the first real walk, and use the Route\/Cadence Planner to plan the rollout — which areas, how often, who's walking, and whether it's actually on track.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePlease note: this is a digital download only, delivered as 5 zip files (Etsy's file limit) so please unzip each one after downloading. No physical item will be shipped. This course explains general good-practice gemba walk principles for training purposes and is not a substitute for your organisation's own site-specific continuous-improvement programme or management system. Please adapt it to your own site's processes and risk profile before relying on it for a formal Lean or Six Sigma rollout.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Hartfell Safety","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67825351754119,"sku":null,"price":7.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1111\/4669\/7095\/files\/30-gemba-walk.png?v=1793368957","url":"https:\/\/hartfellsafety.com\/products\/gemba-walk-training-course-lean-six-sigma-method-editable-slides-handbook-digital-download","provider":"Hartfell Safety","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
