 +An important part of "standardized work" is having detailed instructions. EVERYONE creating a procedure or work instruction should be required to watch this entertaining video.

 +After you watch the video once... watch it again... but this time notice that Josh's son is clearly behaving like a manager who subscribes to the “[[articles:crosbys_church_of_zero_defects|Zero Defects]]” motivational management approach. Throughout the video… Josh's son expresses the frustration that the vast majority of “Zero Defects” managers experience when they encounter their own inability to clearly convey “how” they expect work to be performed.

 +==== Flow Charting Processes ====
 +
 +An open-source equivalent to Microsoft Office is [[https://www.libreoffice.org/|LibreOffice]]... which includes a program called "[[https://www.libreoffice.org/discover/draw/|Draw]]". This program allows you to create simple flow charts (and includes BPMN symbols from the standard "Gallery").

 +The free book, LibreOffice [[https://documentation.libreoffice.org/en/english-documentation/draw/|"Draw Guide"]] is also available.

 +
 +==== Value Stream Mapping ====
 +
 +Draw.io is a cross-platform, open-source (free) application that allows you to create flow charts, BPMN process flows, and even Value Stream Maps! It's available from:
 +  * [[https://app.diagrams.net/|Diagram Draw.io (Web-Based - Select "Value Stream Mapping" from "More Shapes" dialog))]]
 +  * [[https://www.diagrams.net|Draw.io-Desktop]]

Line 9: Line 39:
 I visited one company where a critical process underwent a Standard Work Audit every hour... performed by a different member of the team working in that process (the auditor role was rotated amongst the team). While ISO 9001 & AS 9100 auditors might question the "impartiality" of the "auditor" performing the Standard Work Audit, none of the "auditors" ever audited their own work. Instead, this approach was, essentially, a "buddy audit" (or "associate audit") approach. This ensured that the entire team was "on the same page" in understanding the process. I visited one company where a critical process underwent a Standard Work Audit every hour... performed by a different member of the team working in that process (the auditor role was rotated amongst the team).

 +==== Creating an Organization Chart - in Microsoft Word ====
  
-Another great videofrom Josh Darnit (Yes. That's his real name), is the "Exact Instructions Challenge"+While Microsoft Word is NOT my favorite Word processorit is for most other people (Bless their hearts). HoweverMicrosoft Word is the easiest program I've found for creating organization charts.  Microsoft Word includes some standard graphics called "SmartArt". If you're using Excel or Powerpoint to create organization charts... that's called [[https://fourweekmba.com/einstellung-effect/|"Maslow's Hammer" (aka "The Einstellung effect")]] — misuse of a familiar tool. Stop it. Learn something new. The video below shows you how to make some pretty cool organization charts using "SmartArt".

 +==== Creating an Organization Chart - in LibreOffice Draw ====
  
 +if you're not a fan of Microsoft Office, then [[https://www.libreoffice.org/|LibreOffice]] is an excellent FREE alternative — that is also cross-platform. The below video offers detailed step-by-step instructions on how to create an organization chart in LibreOffice "Draw". Once you're happy with the chart, save it as a graphic image (e.g., a .png file) and embed it in whatever document that you would like. You can edit the "Draw" file whenever you like (as organization changes occur).

 +===== Lean =====
 +==== Lean Wastes - why there are only 7! ====
 +
 +The below video (from Paul Allen) explains why there are actually only 7 (rather than 8) Wasres in Lean. He then provides an excellent short explanation of "what" Lean is.

 +==== Outside Micrometer Calibration - How to Calibrate - Mitutoyo ====
 +While often overlooked by companies calibrating their own micrometers in-house, Mitutoyo, ASME & the USAF all agree that calibration of micrometer anvil Flatness & Parallelism is important. The below video from Mitutoyo describes, step-by-step, how a common outside micrometer is "supposed" to be calibrated.

 +==== Gauging Quality, Episode 6 - Inside Mics, Optical Flatness, and Thread Pitch Wires ====
 +
 +Quality Digest has a great video series titled “[[https://www.youtube.com/c/QualityDigest|Tech Corner]]". Their "Gauging Quality", Episode 6 - "Inside Mics, Optical Flatness, and Thread Pitch Wires" provides an excellent discussion of the "hows" and "whys" to calibrate multiple instruments.

 +==== Caliper Calibration - How to Calibrate a Caliper ====
 +
 +While often overlooked by companies calibrating their own calipers in-house, //many// (although not all) calipers offer a "step" feature. When it exists, this feature must be included in the calibration process. The below video from the Mitutoyo Metrology Training Lab describes, step-by-step, how a caliper is “supposed” to be calibrated.
