“I’ve had a paradigm shift in goal setting since attending the workshop. The Kata approach’s focus on setting short-term, targeted goals to tackle one obstacle at a time is refreshing. Our usual method was to set objectives extending to 90 days and beyond. Kata’s agility is a game-changer. We’re eager to incorporate the Kata methodology into our lean training and execution framework.”
