Testimonials
Dr. Alan G. Robinson, award-winning author, educator, and consultant
has studied the impact of TWI on businesses for several years. Dr.
Robinson commented,
“The TWI programs have a long track record
of dramatically boosting productivity and quality almost wherever
they are used. They might well be the most successful supervisor
training programs ever developed, in terms both of the numbers
of people who have gone through them and their impact. Over the
last four decades, they have supported the kaizen efforts of some
of the world’s most efficient companies. In particular, they
played a central role in the conceptual development of lean production
and in instilling its most important principles in the minds of
millions.
The three TWI programs – Job Relations, Job Methods,
and Job Instruction – were carefully designed by some of
the best training and management experts in U.S. history, and rigorously
field-tested before general release. And as you will see, their
message is unique. In five punchy two-hour modules, each course
usually causes profound and lasting change in the way participants
think and act.”
Participant Remarks
Job Instruction
Shop Floor Supervisor
“We had a brand new
employee. The team leader had left for the day so I had to set
her up on a packing job. I prepared myself first and went through
the steps (the JIT Four Step Method). She did a perfect
job without mistakes.”
Production
Supervisor
“This was my first course
in how to be a better trainer. I am going to teach it to my 5
leaders”.
Production
Group Leader
In response to the question “Do you
feel taking this course has helped you to be a better supervisor?” the
supervisor wrote; “Yes, I know that when I train someone,
it will be done right, safely, and efficiently.”
Job Relations
Shop Floor Supervisor
“This would have been a perfect course
when I started as a leader, 20 years ago!”
Director of Corporate
Development
“Simplicity is elegant. The program addresses
fundamental human needs.”
Shop Floor Supervisor
“What
I enjoyed most about this course is the real life problems brought
in and used to learn the method.”
Job Methods
VP Operations
“What
I like most about this course is “the practicality of the
concept. It’s simple and it works!”
Machine Operator
“Replaced
multiple size arbor spacers with one universal spacer to reduce
set-up time for a grinding operation.”
Consultant
“JMT
produces immediate and dramatic results. Because the training
starts with a baseline, it is easy to document and demonstrate measurable
results. Clearly demonstrates the return on investment (ROI)
that can be obtained from workforce training. This is a huge benefit
because historically training has not been able to demonstrate
specific bottom line results.”
