Visual Management is a methodology that uses visual tools and techniques to manage and optimize workflows. It is based on the idea that visual information is easier to understand and act on than written or verbal information, and that by using visual tools and techniques, organizations can improve communication, coordination, and productivity in the workplace.
Visual Management typically involves the use of a variety of visual tools and techniques, such as labels, signs, posters, and color-coding, to communicate information and instructions in a clear and intuitive way.
For example, a Visual Management system might use labels on shelves to identify the contents of each location, or use color-coded signs to indicate the status of a machine or process. By using these visual tools and techniques, Visual Management can help workers to quickly and easily find and access the information they need, and to understand their tasks and responsibilities without having to rely on written instructions or verbal explanations.
Visual Management is closely related to the concept of Visual Workplace, which also emphasizes the use of visual tools and techniques to improve communication, coordination, and productivity in the workplace.
However, while Visual Management focuses specifically on using visual tools and techniques to manage and optimize workflows, Visual Workplace is a broader concept that focuses on using visual tools and techniques to improve the overall work environment.
These concepts are also closely related to Lean 5S.
CUSTOMER TESTIMONIALS
"I have used Flevy services for a number of years and have never, ever been disappointed. As a matter of fact, David and his team continue, time after time, to impress me with their willingness to assist and in the real sense of the word. I have concluded in fact that it is not at all just a repository of documents/resources but, in the way that David and his team manage the firm, it is like dealing with consultants always ready to assist, advise and direct you to what you really need, and they always get it right.
I am an international hospitality accomplished senior executive who has worked and lived during the past 35 years in 23 countries in 5 continents and I can humbly say that I know what customer service is, trust me.
Aside from the great and professional service that Flevy's team provide, their wide variety of material is of utmost great quality, professionally put together and most current.
Well done Flevy, keep up the great work and I look forward to continue working with you in the future and to recommend you to a variety of colleagues around the world."
