Mark Warren, of Tesla2 Inc. has decades years of experience working with Tier 1 and 2 suppliers to improve their manufacturing productivity and quality. He travels the world to learn and teach about Lean 
and most specifically TWI. He likes to concentrate on problem solving methodologies as applied to lean manufacturing, failure analysis, reliability improvements, and in-house, OEM and field warranty failure reduction. Mark will be discussing Training within Industry at the upcoming 9th Annual TWI Summit n Jacksonville, FL.
Mark’s session at the Summit is Making TWI Useful: Ohno’s Secrets: Results of a case study from multiple industries (high volume to low volume – machining, assembly, foundry, textile and office) Inspired by a 1956 program delivered in Japan that taught problem solving using all three TWI skills and the Management Training Program targeting middle managers. The objective was to create similar results as Ohno did inside Toyota. The experimental program spends limited time on theory and mostly focuses on application and coaching of the skills. This is done by simplifying the implementation of the TWI skills into the daily routines of supervisors and managers.
