ABSTRACT

The closeout presentation should be scheduled for late morning, allowing the team leader time to prepare and the team to rest at home until the time of the presentation. Unless the kaizen champion is giving the presentation, the team leader may need to meet with the champion to discuss how the presentation should be organized. The purpose of the presentation is to show the entire facility what the team has accomplished, highlighting all the improvements made to the business metrics. Figure 12.1 shows a list of the required items needed for the final day.
