How to build Leader Standard Work for a supervisor or manager

  1. Pick the role. Choose the role the standard work is being written for — team leader, supervisor, area manager, plant lead.
  2. Set the cadence. Set which tasks belong daily, which weekly and which monthly. Fewer, well-anchored tasks beat a long unrealistic list.
  3. Assign the standard tasks. For each cadence, choose the standard tasks: gemba walk, tier huddle attendance, LPA audit, 1:1s, KPI review.
  4. Export the card. Export the printable Leader Standard Work card and post it at the leader's desk or in the tier board area.
  5. Audit adherence. Adherence is the leading indicator. If leader standard work isn't audited, it won't happen.
