The first in this series: Training Within Industry (TWI)

Frontline Leader Skill Development – Training Within Industry (TWI) was developed in the ‘40s to help drive the war effort. This program is still relevant as we focus on domestic manufacturing.

More than 1 million people were trained in TWI methods during WWII, working in about 600 companies. The following benefits were realized:

• 86% increased production by at least 25%
• 100% reduced training time by 25% or more
• 88% Reduced labor hours by over 25%
• 55% reduced scrap by at least 25%
• 100% reduced grievances by more than 25%

Today, we compete globally and it’s more important than ever to implement and sustain LEAN.

TWI leverages the role of front-line leaders by providing the skills needed to succeed.

• Standardizes Work
