About Lean Lego Game
Who is Lean Lego Game for?
Since we all deal with and use processes in some form both at work and home, Lean Manufacturing training is useful for everybody. Yet, its usually taken by Charlotte students working in manufacturing or service provision. In our course, Charlotte students learn:
Lean Lego Game Course Overview:
Rather than death by PowerPoint, experience waste, push vs. pull processes, kanban, kaizen, systems thinking, and work cells in a fun exercise. This workshop is intended for students fairly early in their Lean journey but can be a fun refresher for more advanced practitioners. It can be run in either a short or longer session which never goes past half-day. A typical day looks like this:
| Iteration | Description | Duration (min) |
|---|---|---|
| Introduction | 20 | |
| 1 | Build Houses using a push system | 10 |
| Retrospective focused on families of waste, push vs. pull, and kanban | 20 | |
| 2 | Build Houses | 10 |
| Retrospective focused on level-loading, systems thinking, and work cells | 20 | |
| 3 | Build Houses | 10 |
| Retrospective focused on kaizen | 20 | |
| 4 | Build Houses | 10 |
| Retrospective | 20 | |
| Conclusion | 20 | |
| Total | 160 |
A short session uses three iterations. A longer session uses all four.
Prerequisites. None
More Cities
If Charlotte won't work for you, don't worry. MBB Consulting™ also offers Lean Lego Game in the following recommended cities plus many more:
Charlotte
Queen City - Charlotte's Got A Lot
Excellent choice! Charlotte was named in honor of the wife of King George II, was the center of America's first 17 pound nugget-triggered gold rush, is home of the NASCAR Hall of Fame, and known for Meck Dec Day, Pimento Cheese, and BBQ. Otherwise after Lean Lego Game, the most popular things to try might be the Billy Graham Library, or Freedom Park.

 Randy B. SCR Process Engineer Energy This (5S) training was beneficial and provided sufficient detail for a student entering the course with no previous background or knowledge of the course subject. Instructor stories and examples were entertaining and kept discussion flowing. |
 Nate W. Manufacturing Engineer Fluid Transfer - Piping, Tubing, Hoses, and Fittings I've taken an entire Lean Manufacturing course at OSU and this 8-hour training refueled my resolve for implementing 5S into my daily life. |
