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

Emerald City
Excellent choice! Seattle is a tech-booming, rainy, coffee-loving Pacific paradise bordered by the Olympic and Cascade Mountains between Puget Sound and Lake Washington. Seattle was born on lumber then gold becoming the main supply, transport, and communication point for Alaskan miners. In-fact, UPS and major clothing companies were begun as a result. Shipbuilding followed encouraged by WWI. Theater emerged. WWII spurred aircraft production which afterwards transformed to commercial applications. The Space Needle was built. And, technology migrated in with Seattle becoming home to some of America's largest tech giants.
