Leadership - The Toyota Way

November 20, 2008

Leadership teams from ten HiDEC member companies and a few HiDEC friends packed the Father Luke room at McMenamins to attend a full day workshop with Mike Hoseus, a former Toyota supervisor who specializes in teaching "The Toyota Way." Hoseus was in Central Oregon last February for a sold-out, 250-seat workshop on company culture that received rave reviews from attendees. Mike presented his second of a four workshop series focused on Leadership - The Toyota Way. Leadership teams learned about Toyota's system and broke out into small work sessions to tackle their own internal leadership questions. "The Toyota workshop was an excellent opportunity for members of our management team to break away from the day-to-day and focus on the culture of our company," said Michelle Carney Sander, a member of the Breedlove Guitars leadership team. "Working through the exercises helped us develop the framework to begin reviewing our internal processes." Stay tuned for a possible HiDEC Executive Forum featuring Mike Hoseus in early 2009.
