@imperialvenues I booked 4 nights in Beit Hall in September. I could not stay more than 1 night as there was no hot water and the room was filthy. I was assured I'd get a refund, but now I am not getting any response to my repeated emails. Please help?

How do you spot a #KataGeek out in the wild? When they bring a Desired Operating Pattern, in the form of a block diagram, to their pottery class. Safe to say, I found plenty of obstacles 🤣 #ScientificThinking

Today I am sharing the story of my recent experiences of 'casual' sexism. I debated whether or not to write this. Whether I should stay quiet and not rock the boat. But I decided that this is too important not to share. linkedin.com/pulse/story-ca… #sexism #leanthinking

Hi @canva I LOVE using Canva to make documents - particularly workbooks and support materials for training. Any chance you might soon include the functionality for automatic page numbering? 🤞

I'm very lucky to be coaching two teams at @UMich - daily coaching cycles over @Zoom using @Mural storyboards. Each team has a short process which they're working to improve, and by doing so, they're learning how to think and act in a more scientific way. #ToyotaKata

Here's a student team at the University of Michigan (College of Engineering) presenting their next target condition on their course project. Professor is Joi Mondisa @JoiMondisaPhD and the team's coach is Gemma Jones @SPARKimprove. Toyota Kata in education ... such a great fit!

I had a BLAST talking on the Baptist Management System podcast about the 1st step of the Improvement Kata: ⛰️Setting the Challenge Interested in learning how to THINK and ACT in a more effective way? That will drive improvement? Grab a ☕ 👉open.spotify.com/episode/0JjSjE… #ToyotaKata

Improvement can be exponential - v.slow at first, but then increasing. With consistent + frequent practice, all of a sudden the progress can be HUGE. This phenomenon can be frustrating for a new learner, but the coach must let them experience it themselves. #katamicrolearning

@consultswan @amazon Amazon have ruined the whole thing, I am still so cross! Cannot play a specific song now, they will only shuffle songs by the artist, mixed in with other 'similar' songs. Same for playlists, they cannot be played in sequence, only shuffled. SO NOT COOL 💔 @Spotify here I come.

Just had a full blown row with my Alexa as to why she wouldn't play my favourite playlist without shuffling. I use this playlist to focus and GET ON IT. After some desperate googling I discover that it's not just me, but this is an actual 'upgrade'. Not happy @Amazon!
