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 Dallas students working in manufacturing or service provision. In our course, Dallas 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

Dallas
D-Town
Excellent choice! Dallas is home to 21 Fortune 500 companies including Exxon Mobil, JC Penney, AT&T, Texas Instruments, and others. With the construction of multiple railroads, Dallas became a booming trading center especially for cotton attracting workers from neighboring states. Skyscrapers emerged early. Petroleum was discovered around Dallas establishing the city as a market hub. Communications, Engineering and manufacturing evolved from WWII. City inventions include the Superbowl, and frozen margarita machine. Local foods include BBQ, Mexican, Tex-Mex, and margaritas. Have fun and take time to enjoy the city after your MBBC Lean Lego Game class.
