Visual management and shop floor teams – development, implementation and use
journal contribution
posted on 2016-06-10, 08:43 authored by Nicola Bateman, Lee Philp, Harry WarrenderThis research investigates the use of visual management, specifically communications boards in a British lock manufacturing
company. The research explores the design, implementation and use of communications boards over two years.
The purpose of the research was to bring design principles from the graphic design and cognitive psychology into a previously
informal process and to develop Visual Management (VM) principles to guide the design of the board. The
research findings have acted as a proof of process for the introduction of VM theory into the design of communications
boards and provide evidence that the VM principles improved the design of the board. This enabled Team Leaders to
better engage in problem-solving and continuous improvement with their teams.
