Dear Wal, in mathematics, we say one plus one is equal to two. But when it comes to people, it is only partially true. Most of the time, two people can carry out much bigger tasks than the sum of the tasks they carry out individually. This is known as the synergy effect.

The Importance of Teams in Lean Manufacturing

Teams are a very important aspect of lean manufacturing. All the success of the system is based on team spirit. To be able to successfully use tools like work cells, pull scheduling, and 5S, we need very strong team spirits within the organization. If even a single person is not functioning correctly, the whole system will collapse.

Goal Setting and Recognition

Goal setting is done for teams, not for individuals. Recognition is also carried out in teams. This will make people think in teams.

Formal Teams and Their Functions

There will be formal teams to carry out specific tasks. For example, quality circles are formally formed cross-functional teams meant to improve the quality of the products. These teams will consist of managers, workers, and other influencing parties. Teams will be strengthened with team-building exercises.

As an organization, at the end of the day, what is important is the final outcome, not the individual performances.
