Visual learners may benefit from Lean posters

There are three different learning types: visual, auditory and kinesthetic. Most people are some combination of the three, although they may prefer one type over the other two. According to Prime Infographics, the majority of workers (65 percent) are visual learners, meaning they associate concepts and knowledge with visuals they saw when they first learned the material.

When it comes to learning new concepts and business practices such as Lean manufacturing, employers should do what they can to reinforce the material in the minds of their workers. This means catering to the learning styles of employees. When 65 percent of the general population classify themselves as “visual learners,” simply having a speaker explain Lean may not be enough.

Lean posters are one tool that companies can use to help their workers remember the various tenets of Kaizen. These visual aids can be placed around the workplace in strategic places, so that they are always in view and remind workers to follow new practices and policies.
