Lean for Trades Toolbox Talk Series

 

AGC’s Lean Construction Forum Steering Committee has developed the Lean for Trades Toolbox Talk Series to introduce Lean Construction concepts to the job-site. These 10-minute conversational huddles will help your team identify ways to improve processes, eliminate waste and adopt a Lean culture in the shop and field. Each Toolbox Talk session, released monthly, reviews a concept you can use to create discussion, teach and grow your team’s understanding of Lean and determine how you can work more productively and collaboratively . Review the slide deck in an office or on a site, use the lesson to explain the concept, discuss the concept and use the printable handout to pass out to your team as a tool to help implement positive change.

Leading an AGC Lean for Trades Toolbox Talk counts for 1 Continuing Education credit towards your CM-Lean Credential. To obtain credit, please complete a survey on the Toolbox Talk you have completed and click here to submit for credit for your participation as a speaker and provide documentation (e.g. event date, participant list, description of event).
