Here's an aid to remembering the four steps of the Improvement Kata pattern:

One C = Challenge
Two C = Current Condition
TC = next Target Condition
Test = Experiment toward the target condition

Say it this way:
"One Cee - Two Cee - Tee Cee - Test!"

Thanks to Karl & his team at @vibco_vibrators for their endless support of @CharihoRegional students. The @incubatoredu students were so impressed by the work culture & attention to detail they witnessed! Thanks again!

[Mike Rother @RealMikeRother]

Educators: Just doing activities doesn't = students are learning. The value of activity depends on what the students are practicing when they engage in it. Add the Improvement Kata framework to an activity & it also becomes practice in scientific thinking. https://t.co/LovdhvvcTr

Karl was surprised & stoked to hear that Salve required each & every student to take the @CliftonStrengths Assessment to discover their individual top 5 strengths! This is a rarity & extremely refreshing to know Salve is dedicated to investing in their students!

Students were gifted a copy of the #Lean book “Kaizen Forever”; a philosophy book that introduces lessons of Chihiro Nakao, who co-founded #ShingijutsuUSA in 1987 at the behest of Taiichi Ohno to teach the principles & practices of the @Toyota Production System to more leaders.
