On February 2nd 2022 I sat down with John Shook, Chairman, Lean Global Network; Senior Advisor, Lean Enterprise Institute, and the co-author with Mike Rother of the seminal book "Learning to See" that introduced the world to Value Stream Mapping.
The conversation was fascinating as we understand the origins in Toyota of Value Stream Mapping, something known internally as Materials and Information Analysis. We learn where the name Value Stream Mapping came from, and why the book came to be called Learning to See.
We discover that the use of VSM has been distorted and that it really is a design system for simple systems, and it's primary use is NOT to find waste, although we always want to detect waste or non-value-added activity.
We talk about the utility of VSM in complex systems as well as non-manufacturing environments such as offices and digital systems. I learned the phrase "Carpet Genba"!

When I was taught by Kawasaki before the Japanese car makers arrived in the UK, we were walked through our plant and our Sensei then created what today would be called a more detailed Value Stream Map. Start at the end and work backwards was because most complex value streams converge and if you go left to right you often end up in dead-ends and confusion. When it comes to 'carpet kaizen' I have been practicing in this field for more than three decades and here I have found that most complexity is waste. BUT and its a big BUT there is a key difference in the carpet kaizen world between simpler recurring processes such as paying the payroll and invoicing customers to what I call the non-recurring processes like developing a new class of product. Think Kawasaki's Jet Ski a whole new world of products that didn't exist prior to it being imagineered. In that arena I have been pioneering for decades and had to develop unique methods to create one-time-flow

Just ordered learning to see the other day after reading about it in Jeffrey likers book about Toyota. Hope I can learn something useful. Thanks for the video too😊

I thoroughly enjoyed catching up with John and I think it’s a great resource for anyone interested in VSM.

My job is very clear...create flow by simplifying complexity (value). As I work across industries, I view things in their purity and it's been made evident that most systems are man made and the complexity was created by ourselves. Therefore, we can simplify them by making things visual and by understanding mudatori (stagnation, transportation & motion). Cheers...great video! 🙂
