SCIENCE + KATA = PROBLEM SOLVING SKILL. Practicing the Improvement Kata and Coaching Kata make scientific thinking a skill anyone can learn, by combining a scientific pattern with simple starter routines for your practice. Toyota Kata enhances anyone's ability to meet seemingly unattainable challenges in business, education, politics and daily life. On this Channel you'll find videos about practicing and teaching scientific thinking the Kata way. Use the videos in training, embed them in your own online postings, and share them with others. We CAN meet the challenges we face. Check out the Toyota Kata Website for more.
