The Toyota Way

About

Toyota established Toyota Manufacturing UK (TMUK) in 1989. TMUK has two manufacturing plants in England, employing over 4,000 people. TMUK wanted an event that would develop the behaviours that support the core competencies of the Toyota Way.

The 14 Principles of the Toyota Way is a management philosophy used to drive consistency across the corporation globally.

Impact UK worked in partnership with the TMUK’s Management Development team, to design a programme that would challenge thinking around the competencies and bring the Toyota Way to life.

By using a mix of experiential projects and facilitated reviews, the programme allows the Section Managers to learn, practice and reflect on the competencies whilst developing the required behaviours in a safe and supportive environment.

Results from the initial Section Managers’ programmes have exceeded expectations and TMUK are seeing real business benefits.

The combination of true experiential learning, a consistent focus on mindfulness along with the latest research on leadership are puzzle pieces that contribute to the success and acceptance of the programmes.”

"The assignment has been so successful for both organisations that they are building upon the work already achieved for a sustainable, ongoing partnership for the future. The partnership with Turning Point is an important element of Scottish & Newcastle's approach to responsible drinking. This project provided an opportunity to practise the skills learnt in the workshops and has enabled our graduates to learn the realities and practicalities of working as a team."
