Congratulations!!! Paul and Team, here i´m after 12 years, watching again one of the my firsts watched FastCaps vídeos... !!! Wow, what a journey! Wow a lider!

[@sjsphotog]

WOW . If only EVERY company was run like this, just think about how low unemployment suicides, depression, crime, layoffs, etc etc would be!?1 "THIS IS THE WAY" Fantastic videos love it Paul. Thank. You. We have a LOT to learn and implement. for sure.

[@meboefamily]

Great video. Your energy, enthusiasm, and positive workplace are sure to enrich the lives of the employees.

[@johnlammergeier2890]

If I may suggest getting a moving podium, to help the people leading the meeting and reading notes. I felt empathy with those guys reading from binders in hand.

[@andreacolognese94]

It would be nice to see if and how in ten years the morning have changed! Thanks for all the video Paul and fastcap team!

[@markhorspool6121]

[@Kike13]

Excellent implementation of a culture, the culture of continuous improvement.

[@FastCapLLC]

Thanks Luis!

[@jmannUSMC]

This reminds me of my time in the Marines working on helicopters. Cool to see an improvement of that in the civilian world!

[@sinisapopic7063]

Very informative and great video. It looks great place to work at.

[@FastCapLLC]

Thanks Sinisa. We like it :)

[@JeremiahMiller-zv5ks]

Why are those desk people sitting? In the two second lean book you said it's more efficient to stand

[@FastCapLLC]

@JeremiahMiller-zv5ks You are correct, this video was filmed, about 14 years ago when we were at our original facility when our 2 Second Lean journey was in its infancy. Today we do have standing desks now at the new facility. Check out these videos to see the improvements over the years: Lean Manufacturing - Lean Factory Tour - FastCap: kzbin.info/www/bejne/oIrFqpJ-mN-seqM & FastCap Lean Tour 2.0: kzbin.info/www/bejne/e6LXfH6hltinjc0

Hope all company does that! If morning meetings are use to solve problems, then that is useful.

[@FastCapLLC]

I totally agree! Thanks, Paul

[@billzima7068]

[@FastCapLLC]

Thanks Bill...that never gets old to hear!

[@astoriffic]

Thanks Paul. Super helpful.

[@FastCapLLC]

Your welcome Eric! Paul

[@ericastor3340]

Paul - do you have a list of forms and meeting topics used at Fastcap during your morning meetings? My 2 Second lean book is on loan to one of my staff members so I wasn't sure if you covered it in the book… Thanks for all the great videos. Eric / Furnace Record Pressing

[@FastCapLLC]

Eric: Here is link to our Morning Meeting PDF. 2secondlean.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/10/MorningMeetingBook-20141030.pdf. Your right, it is referenced in the book. Paul

To succeed out side you have to start inside!

[@MarcBrouwer1]

Great video. With all the info covered, what are the average lengths of your morning meetings aprox.

[@FastCapLLC]

30 min to 60 min. It is literally a live teaching forum. Paul

[@sonandpets1215]

Hi Fast Cap, first time watching your video and I'm so glad it was recommended. What are the 16 principles Fast Cap believes in? How have the meetings changed now days? Are you and your team using any software to actually track improvements?

[@davidvayro3464]

Paul’s website: paulakers.net has the books (free!) and I understand the 16 principles can be found as a resource within the 2second lean book. Some were mentioned in the video (the group responses) Paul is currently running an awesome virtual tour series with AME. Search AME 2 second lean and you should be able to find details - if you liked this video, you’ll enjoy the tours also.

[@Makoonga]

Couple things...I have 3 Dachshunds. They have no idea how lucky they are to be my pets. Surely your employees know how lucky they are to work for you. Secondly....have you ever made a video about how your Fastcap Loco came to be? I would enjoy seeing that.

[@andrewjacoby35]

paul is there a list of the 16 fast cap principles somewhere?

[@FastCapLLC]

You can find 21 principles here. paulakers.net/docs/morningmeeting.pdf You can find all our morning meeting documents here (under Lean Documents). www.fastcap.com/estore/pc/viewContent.asp?idpage=88

[@andrewjacoby35]

[@turbo2ltr]

Where can I find out more about "the dashboard" part of the meeting?

[@FastCapLLC]

[@brianway]

That's a great video!

[@FastCapLLC]

Thanks Brian! Paul

[@ekengrenmarkus]

Paul, Great video! :) I´ve noticed that your emplyees wearing their own clothes at work and not a standard work clothes. What is your policy for that? Is it common in USA (emplyees using their own clothes at work)? Thanks again for the vid! Now I will planning my next morning meet for my team! :)

[@FastCapLLC]

Hey Markus: wearing your own clothes to work is common in the USA. Let me know how your morning meeting goes…or better yet, send a video.

[@engmohamedoman]

well done...inspiring

[@FastCapLLC]

+Mohamed Ali Thanks so much!

[@evanedge6962]

put's my jobs morning meetings to shame. I can't get my boss to mention lean despite us being a lean factory. most the time she's not even there :/ When she is there, and asks if anyone has anything, no one feels like it's worth it to mention anything.
