We Make People
“There is a saying at Toyota: 'monozukuri wa hitozukuri,' which means 'we make things through making people.' This fundamental leadership principle at Toyota means that supporting others to learn and grow – and helping people learn how to think more deeply to solve problems and achieve their goals – is a vital effort in service of making a good product.”

A few of the nuggets of wisdom you’ll walk away with after the workshop:
- Understand how the Leading to Learn framework of a leader’s purpose is foundational to lean practices and tools such as Hoshin Kanri, A3 thinking, and Toyota Kata
- Learn about Mr. Yoshino’s own Chain of Learning – from his bosses and mentors at Toyota to what he has passed on to his team members, including John Shook, and others, including the practices of going to gemba, asking questions, and asking for “bad news first”
- Discover how having a Leadership Credo can provide the blueprint for the culture you want to create, and learn how Mr. Yoshino developed his own Leadership Credo and used it to set him and his team up for success and growth
To the intentional leader who’s seeking the fundamentals of your role in creating a learning organization:
You’re trying to do more, achieve more, accomplish more.
But what if achieving more wasn’t about doing more?
- Does your behavior align with your desire to fill your organization with problem-solvers?
- Are you learning both from those who develop you and through your process of developing others?
- Are you increasing your impact and effectiveness, and that of your people, so that you can ultimately achieve your goals, and create greater value for your clients and customers?
That is your purpose as a leader.
Imagine a life and organization of greater meaning…
Even if you’ve come to other events with Katie and Mr. Yoshino, you’ll hear some new stories and insights that you might not have heard before.
Experience a greater connection with your people, simplify your problem-solving process, and feel connected to and uplifted by your purpose, as you get back to the heart of leadership during this workshop.
Stop doing more, and start achieving more when you work together. Remember, 1+1 = much more than 2.
Create your Chain of Learning, starting today.
