What is Gemba?
For those who haven’t heard the term Gemba before, it is a Japanese word that means “The Real Place,” and is used in this context to refer to any area of a company where the action is taking place. This could be a warehouse where products are stored and shipped, or
a facility where products are made, or even a customer service area. Anywhere that action is taken and value is created in support of the business is considered Gemba.
So, a Gemba walk is when business leaders leave their offices and go out to see how things are done, and ideally, find ways to make improvements. Managers can get out and observe work from the ‘front lines’ rather than simply reviewing reports or listening to observations of others from behind their desks.
Walking the Gemba is a process of developing your people.
In today's world, business is growing rapidly; corporates are becoming mammoth in terms of number of employees. It is at times getting somewhat difficult for senior leaders of large corporate houses to stay connected with their employees. Practice The Gemba Walk techniques effective way means almost to get connected with employees.

Stop the Accident Before You’re Part of the AccidentBen Geck
One of the most important things any safety manager, or other leader in a facility can do to help improve overall safety is to teach everyone that preventing accidents before they happen is
an important part of their job. While responding
to accidents
after they
happen is
necessary, it
is really only
the result of
the facility
failing to prevent
it from happening in
the first place. Rather
than waiting for problems to come occur, so solutions can be found and implemented, it is much better to always be on the lookout for ways to stop an accident before it becomes a reality.
Hazardous Waste Operations and Emergency Response protocols, often referred to as HAZWOPER, are a set

Introduction to the Gemba walk

“In Poe’s The Tell-tale Heart, gemba is that
heart thumping under the floorboards. In
sports, it’s wherever the ball is. In business, it’s
the place where real value is created, the place
where the rubber meets the road, so to speak.
In other words, gemba is the beating heart of
your organization.”
Gemba vs. MBWA
When people first hear of Gemba, they often think
it is the same concept as MBWA, or Management By
Walking Around. MBWA is the idea that managers
should regularly get up, and walk through the areas that
they are responsible for. When doing this, they will be
more accessible to employees, and have a better chance
at identifying opportunities for improvement.
Unlike Gemba, however, MBWA is not very structured
at all. Managers don’t have a goal in mind when walking
through an area, other than to observe what is going
on. A Gemba walk, on the other hand, is much more
structured. The leader will be walking through an area
with a specific goal in mind. Prior to going to an area,
the leaders should identify specific results they are
looking to achieve. This could be the elimination of
inefficiency, the improvement of a safety problem, or
any number of other things. The leaders must always
know why they are going to an area for observation, and
what they are trying to learn.
Introduction to the
Gemba Walk
Business leaders in virtually all industries today are
looking for ways to make improvements in the way their
company runs. There are many types of improvement
opportunities available, including efficiency
improvements, safety improvements, or improvements
to virtually any other aspect of the company. With so
much global competition existing today, if a company is
not in a process of constant improvement, competitors
will quickly overtake them.
One thing that leaders have discovered is that it is
nearly impossible to identify opportunities, and make
improvements without getting their hands dirty, and
seeing how things are actually done. Discovering how
front line employees operate is the basis of the Gemba
Walk.
What is Gemba?
For those who haven’t heard the term Gemba before, it
is a Japanese word that means “The Real Place,” and is
used in this context to refer to any area of a company
where the action is taking place. This could be a
warehouse where products are stored and shipped, or
a facility where products are made, or even a customer
service area. Anywhere that action is taken and value is
created in support of the business is considered Gemba.
So, a Gemba walk is when business leaders leave their
offices and go out to see how things are done, and
ideally, find ways to make improvements. Managers
can get out and observe work from the ‘front lines’
rather than simply reviewing reports or listening to
observations of others from behind their desks.
Here is a great quote from Bill Wilder which was
featured in IndustryWeek,
2. Preparing for a Gemba Walk
When preparing for a Gemba walk, it is important to
know exactly what you’re attempting to learn from this
experience. Taking the time to plan out the walk is a
great way to ensure you get as much value out of it as
possible. Some points to think about while planning
include:
One Specific Goal – Each Gemba walk should
have one specific goal in mind. For example,
eliminating waste in production is one goal. If,
while on the walk, other areas of improvement are
identified, they can be addressed during future
walks. Your full attention should be on the one goal
throughout the experience.
Have No Assumptions – When beginning a
Gemba walk, it is important to eliminate any
preconceived assumptions about what you will
find. Go in as a blank slate, and seek only to find
the truth in what is happening at the Gemba, no
matter what that is.
Document the Walk – Make sure you have
everything you’ll need to keep track of what you
learn while on the Gemba walk. Whether you’re
using a notepad, a tablet, or a video recorder, make
creativesafetysupply.com 1-866-777-1360The leaders in visual safety.
sure you are able to document exactly what you
find so you don’t forget any important discoveries.
Get to the Gemba – When planning a Gemba
walk, it is important to get to every‘action area.’
This means knowing what parts of a facility have
an effect on the area you’re investigating. If you
are looking to improve productivity, for example,
you may need to walk through several different
areas to identify every possible item that slows
down the production of
products. A great resource to
help walk you through the
process can be found in this
Gemba book:
Understand Observation –
One of the most important
things about a Gemba walk
is observing the activities
that are going on. This
doesn’t simply mean looking around an area, but
requires intentional observation. Knowing what
look for, and how to find the information required
for improvement is essential prior to taking a
Gemba walk.
Taking the Walk
Once you’re prepared for the walk, it is important
to execute it properly. A well done Gemba walk can
identify all sorts of improvement opportunities, and
allow a facility to benefit from the exercise. A poorly
executed one, however, will be little more than a waste
of time. While on a Gemba walk, keep these things in
mind:
Show Respect – When walking through an area,
respect the employees who are working. Let them
know why you are there, and ask if they have
any input. Keep in mind, however, that they are
the experts in this Gemba, so make sure to show
appreciation and accept what they are saying.

3. creativesafetysupply.com 1-866-777-1360The leaders in visual safety.
No Snap Judgments – Don’t assume after seeing
one problem that you know the root cause of the
issue you’re trying to solve. While on the walk, the
goal is to gather up information and learn as much
as possible, not to make judgments.
Look Deeper – Avoid the temptation to walk
through an area with just a superficial look at what
is going on. Always try to look deeper into what
is happening. Look at what might be causing a
particular action. Thinking about root causes rather
than symptoms is essential.
Be the Employee – To as great an extent as
possible, try to look at the Gemba through the eyes
of the employee. Find out why they do, think, say
or act in certain ways. Don’t assume they think the
same way as you, ask lots of questions and spend
lots of time listening to their answers.
Listen – One problem many leaders have is that
they want to jump in and answer problems, or
give retorts to criticisms. On a Gemba walk, make
sure you always listen to the employees who
are working in the area. Let them vent, and get
everything out that they want to say. There is often
very valuable information in their words.
After the Gemba walk is completed
Once you’ve completed a Gemba walk, make sure to
evaluate the things you’ve learned as soon as possible.
This will allow you to have the experience fresh in your
mind. Evaluating the information you’ve gathered is
where you’ll actually be coming up with the solutions
to any problems identified, or where you will find
opportunities for improvements.
Whenever possible, validate your conclusions with the
people from which you drew them. For example, if after
a Gemba walk you identified a process of getting new
materials as where the production is slowing down,
bring that to the people doing the work. Ask them what
they think about your conclusion, and if they see that as
a problem too. It could be that this is the root cause, but
by validating your conclusion with those in the Gemba,
you can be much more confident that your solution will
bring the changes you desire.
Presenting your conclusions to the employees will
also help in a variety of other ways. When this is done,
employees will see that action is being taken based on
what you learned from them on the Gemba walk. This
will help them to be open to helping with future walks as
well. Another benefit is that it will prepare them for any
needed changes that will be put in place. Letting them see
the conclusions you made, and any possible improvements
that will help ensure the changes are accepted.
Data Collection & Analysis
When performing a Gemba walk, it is important to
gather as much information as possible. One key thing
to keep in mind about this, however, is that you are not
simply collecting data for a traditional analysis. The
Gemba walk is not a time to gather data such as how
many parts a particular area is producing per hour.
While this data could be important, it is not necessary
for Gemba walks.
Instead, the leader performing the walk will want to
take a more holistic look at the area. Data gathered from
these walks could be something like an observation
about employees reporting that a particular machine is
frequently breaking down. Another example could be
that a production line often runs out of a particular part
and has to wait for it to arrive. While these are not the
traditional forms of data most leaders rely on, they can
actually be more important.
4. creativesafetysupply.com 1-866-777-1360The leaders in visual safety.
This is often quite difficult for managers, because
they tend to be more numbers driven. Analyzing
productivity reports in a conference room, for example,
might give them the information they feel they need to
know what is going on in a particular area. While that
type of data is absolutely valuable, it is not the entire
picture. The Gemba walks can help to show another side
of a situation, and open up opportunities for solutions
that would not have otherwise been considered.
How to Take Action
After you’ve completed a Gemba walk, and looked
at the data gathered, you’ll likely have a lot of great
information to work with. Knowing what to do with
that information is essential for not only improvement,
but also for the success of future Gemba walks. If
employees or upper management find that Gemba
walks don’t
actually result in
any meaningful
changes, they
will quickly get
discontinued.
Once the walk is
completed, and
the information
is gone over,
take some time
to make a list of
action items to
be implemented
right away. There
are two factors to consider when making the action list.
First, the scope of the change that needs to be made. If
the walk has identified a major problem, it is important
to get it fixed as soon as possible, so this item should be
placed at or near the top of the list. The second thing to
consider, however, is how long a change will take to be
made. There are many times when a small change can be
put in place almost immediately, with little or no costs.
These types of changes should be done first, because
they will show that you are taking decisive action.
People will see the small benefits right away, which
will give them the confidence to give larger changes a
chance.
Keep in mind that larger changes might be found in
the first few Gemba walks, but over time they will
start to become rare because the major problems
have been addressed. This is why giving attention to
small improvements from the beginning is also very
important. Management and employees will appreciate
the fact that all improvement opportunities are being
taken advantage of. In addition, what may seem like
a small improvement on paper could be a major
improvement to an individual employee.
These small improvements often contribute more to the
overall morale and workplace attitude than the larger
ones could. Keep this in mind whenever making a list of
updates to be implemented after a Gemba walk.
What is Not a Gemba Walk?
Learning about what a Gemba walk is, and how it
should be performed is essential for any leader. It is
equally important, however, to know what a Gemba
walk should not be. These walks should never be a time
when manager or other leaders are finding fault with
individual employees. Even if problems exist in this
area, the Gemba walk is not the time for addressing
them.
These walks will focus on a higher level than an
individual employee. While individual employees can
certainly cause issues, they should be dealt with by
the direct supervisor, and on a case by case basis. The
Gemba walk will identify issues that will be present
regardless of any employee turnover or other related
issues.
Another thing the Gemba walk should not be is a time
to solve problems and make changes. Many leaders

are tempted to make changes on the fly as they see
opportunities on the walk. This is a natural desire,
since most leaders will want to solve problems as
quickly as possible. Attempting to make changes while
on the walk, or even shortly after the walk before a
full evaluation can be made, will be quite distracting.
Keeping the focus on the one main topic, and looking
at long term solutions is much more important than
potentially solving one individual problem.
When to Schedule Gemba Walks
Learning how to effectively perform a Gemba walk
takes time and effort, but once leaders have a good
understanding of them, they can be performed as
often as is needed. For many companies, this will be
quite frequently, especially at first. Facilities that are
just starting to focus on lean productivity and other
improvements will want to have these walks done
at least once or twice a week in different areas. This
will allow innovative ideas and solutions to be found,
which allows for rapid improvement. It may also help
to familiarize employees with the core concepts of lean
which may also assist with the process of Gemba. Take
a look at this complete set of LEAN training videos for
more information.
Over time, the necessity of Gemba walks may lessen
as solutions are found for most problems. Even when
things seem to be running well, however, it is a good
idea to have leaders perform these walks occasionally
just to make sure problems aren’t starting to creep in. A
monthly, or quarterly Gemba walk in each of the main
areas of productivity is typically sufficient for keeping
things operating properly.
In addition, any time there is a major change in
productivity or other obvious problem, it is a good
idea to perform a Gemba walk to attempt to get to the
bottom of any issues. These walks can be scheduled
on an as-needed basis, which is an excellent way to
maintain the benefits over long periods of time.
You Can Benefit from Gemba
Any organization, or individual facility, can benefit
tremendously from Gemba walks. They continue to
grow in popularity throughout virtually all industries,
and have proven to provide a wide range of different
benefits to both the company, and the employees.
While they do take some initial training and work to
get off the ground, they are simple to perform once the
process is mastered. Offering the leaders in a facility the
training necessary to properly perform these walks will
help ensure they are able to get the most benefits from
this helpful business practice.
