Kata, Standardized Work and TWI in Human Resources and Training

Making People Your Competitive Advantage

Create an exceptional employee experience by providing your workforce with the skills they need to succeed.

These days, the charge for Human Resources and Training leaders is less creating good jobs or finding the right people, and more creating an employee experience. According to KPMG’s global study, The Future of HR 2020, a startling 95% of HR & T leaders are prioritizing employee experience. The survey data also points to how important skills are in the experience plan; there is a strong correlation between revenue growth and upskilling workforces.

The TWI Institute is a people business that coaches and trains. Our programs generate results and value in workplaces by advancing skills, contributions and self-respect among supervisors and workers. The work we do with you and your teams provides the ideal foundation, or complement, to continuous improvement training, lean, kaizen, operational excellence or TWI talent development initiatives.

  • Building skills and reskilling as technology evolves
  • Working to regulatory and compliance standards
  • Developing leadership, teams and talent
  • Creating a collaborative improvement culture
  • Adapting to changes in process and people
