Gemba is a Japanese term that means ‘actual place’.
‘Going to the gemba’ means heading for where the work is done, the value is created, or the problem has occurred.

A Gemba Walk is taking the time to walk through your office, factory, shop, or warehouse and watch how things are being done, and talk with people who are doing it.

Here is my 7-step process:
1. Plan
2. Prepare
3. Schedule
4. Observe
5. Recognize
6. Opportunities
7. Actions

The Questions you can ask on your Gemba Walk
• What:
o are you working to achieve?
o will done look like?
o are the quality standards you are working towards?
• What:
o are your schedule (and budget) targets?
o is your status?
• What
o setbacks have you had?
o obstacles are blocking you?
o concerns do you have?
• How:
o are you progressing?
o Can you improve your process?
o Do you get help if you need it?
• What:
o Support do you need?
o Materials or equipment would help you?\n
