The A3 Report poster depicts the A3 problem solving process from problem identification to resolution in a fashion that fosters learning, collaboration, and personal development.

The poster comes in four themes: light, dark, color and monochrome. Formatted in PDF and in editable PPTX, the poster can be easily printed on an A3-sized paper from an office copier machine and displayed on employee workstations, or distributed together with your workshop handouts.

The A3 Report poster complements your A3 Problem Solving training presentation materials. It serves as a takeaway and summary of your process improvement presentation.
