It is such a pleasure to have Dr Gwendolyn Galsworth back on the show with us today. Gwendolyn is a leader in the visual workplace, a best selling author and a legend in Enterprise and Operational Excellence. Gwendolyn spoke to us in our last episode, number 61. I encourage you to listen to episode 61 before this one if you haven't already. In a nutshell, we spoke about two questions for both the frontline and supervisors to ask themselves: <ol> <li>What do I need to do?</li> <li>What do I need to share?</li> </ol> Today we speak about the connection between the operators and senior leadership. Can the passion in the frontline created from a visual workplace be reciprocated at the executive level?

Two Minute Tip I would, first of all, be very hesitant to advise until I saw the floor and got a measure, got a measure of the man or woman who was asking me and try and try to figure out what is it that they would be willing to begin with that was actually a substantial step forward. That is very important to know the measure of the person you're talking to. And hopefully, that they stay in place long enough for step one to be activated.  But certainly, in 90% of the cases, I would begin with visual reality. Because it prepares the work culture for dramatic changes visual reality is not a dramatic change. It is in fact, simply completing the circle people know they need information and they get it Oh good. So it is taking a human need 50% of human brain function is dedicated to finding and interpreting visual data. There it is. Links Brad is proud to support many Australian businesses.
