About Lean Lego Game Training
Who is Lean Lego Game Training 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 Lexington students working in manufacturing or service provision. In our course, Lexington students learn:
Lean Lego Game Training 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.

Lexington
Horse Capital of the World
Excellent choice! At the heart of Kentucky's Bluegrass region, Lexington is famous for peanut butter, root beer, thoroughbreds, and horse racing. The world's most productive peanut butter factory can be found on Winchester Road. Known for its root beer, A&W Restaurants is headquartered here. And of course Lexington's high-calcium Bluegrass fosters strong bones and endurance in horses. Coupled with housing the Keeneland and Red Mile horse tracks, Lexington has become an epicenter of equestrian excellence.

Testimonials
Read what our students and clients have to say.
 Yohei T. Electronics I think MBBC instructor's 5S training was very good and effective by technique and his on-site advise. In Japan, most of purpose for 5S training is "Realization of a safe working environment". In his training, I learned as "Maximize corporate profit" and at the same time it was very impressive that how clear and effect of doing 5S is very closely linked to lean manufacturing. I felt that is effective especially for western who have different mentalities from Japanese. |
 Ricky H. Sr. Product Specialist Materials FMEA training via video conference was excellent with great real world examples. Material and format kept me engaged. The class was more than I expected. I (also) liked Measurement System Analysis training even though I was somewhat familiar with Gage R&R, I learned new techniques that can help me visualize the data quicker / easier. There were also areas where I was able to ask questions more applicable to my new role in this new company. Process Control training was informative and engaging. IATF training was excellent. Instructor was able to answer all of my questions and go above and beyond in assessing my own documentation. I now have not only a better understand of the subject, but I feel confident in the documents we send to our customers |
