Meet Dr Galsworth in Helsinki: Workshop October 4th:

Visual Workplace/Visual Management: You Can’t Get to Excellence Without It

What would it be like if the answers to all your operational questions were
visually embedded into the living landscape of work?
What would you do with all that liberated time? What would your company do?
What would you become? What would your company become?

Join us on October 4 as Dr. Gwendolyn Galsworth, visual expert and award-winning author, shares the core visual workplace definitions, concepts, principles, and frameworks she developed across more than 30 years of hands-on client deployments. Discover what a visual workplace is, how it works, and why it is so important. Learn the visual keys to bottom line, sustainable results that increase productivity by 15% to 30% and build a highly-inventive, culturally-aligned workforce of visual thinkers—from operators to supervisors, engineers, managers, and CEOs. 

 See over 200 visual devices from companies around the world that have learned and applied Galsworth’s methods in their war on information deficits. See how and why her 10-Doorway Model helps all organizational functions embed a visual language into the living landscape of their work that lets the workplace speak. Understand for yourself what thought leaders and management gurus mean when they say: “Workplace visuality doesn’t just strengthen your company’s work culture. Workplace visuality creates it.”

 Walk away with a fresh understanding of the power of visuality as a language as natural as speaking—yet as precise, lasting, and sustaining as brick and mortar. Whether yours is a factory, military depot, utility, hospital, bank, or engineering office, Gwendolyn will show you why visuality is indispensable to your company’s excellence journey and a spirited, engaged and inventive workforce.

• Understand the role of the individual when your company converts to i-driven visuality
• Appreciate visuality as a natural extension of human brain function
• Learn vital difference between the visual workplace and visual management
• Compare and contrast measures that monitor and measures that drive.
• Learn how visuality can energize and unite your workforce—even in a multi-lingual, multi-cultural, multi-shift enterprise.
