Lean not only impacts the bottom line of an organization or agency in the long term, but did you know it can reduce environmental (green) impacts?
We will discuss ways to reduce water, air emissions, solid waste, toxins, and energy. We will also perform a live simulation to show how to “learn to see” the 8 forms of waste within a process, lean the process so your customers can get what they want faster, then teach you how to understand customer value through a video exercise. We will also show how existing Lean tools can be slightly modified to incorporate environmental impacts.
Concepts covered include: Kaizen events, 5S, employee engagement, 8 wastes (TIM WOODS), Toyota, W.A.S.T.E. Walks, 5 Why's and numerous case studies.

We share our takes and thoughts on a variety of topics related to process improvement (specifically Lean and Six Sigma methods), Bursts are rapid improvement activities, so this sounded like a good word to use for these short audio clips. We’ll try to keep them under 5 minutes each.
Energy Treasure Hunts can be described as a combination of gemba walks and kaizen events in Lean methodology, with the goal to identify and reduce energy usage in a facility. This is a great approach that combines my passion for process improvement and sustainability.
I uploaded a recent webinar I did on Energy Treasure Hunts to AI (NotebookLM), and it generated a fake podcast episode between two robots, which was mind-blowing to hear.
I share segments from the “podcast” so you can hear how it sounds. Let me know what you think!
In summary, here is how NotebookLM summarized the webinar, which was well-stated:
“Energy treasure hunts and programs like the Better Buildings Challenge offer a powerful approach to identifying and implementing energy-saving opportunities. By engaging employees, leveraging data analysis, and fostering collaboration, organizations can achieve significant energy reductions, cost savings, and environmental benefits.”
