What Is Visual Management?
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.
