How to Use This Playbook

vii

In most cases, a playbook is a spiral-bound notebook that outlines a strategy for

a sport or a game. Whether for a football game, a video game, or even a board

game, playbooks are all around us and when written properly provide immediate

and easily understood direction. Playbooks can also provide general information;

then, it is up to the user of the playbook to tailor it to their individual needs.

Playbooks contain pictures, diagrams, quick references, denitions, and often

step-by-step illustrations to explain certain parts. You can use playbooks to help

you understand the entire game or you can pick and choose to focus on one

element. The bottom line is that any playbook should be easy to read and to the

point and contain little to no ller information.

The 5S Playbook is written for the Lean practitioner and facilitator. Like a

football coach, a facilitator can use this playbook for quick reference and be able

to convey what is needed easily. If for some reason the person leading the actual

5S implementation forgets a “play,” the playbook can be referenced.

You can follow page by page and use the playbook to facilitate a 5S implemen-

tation or you can go directly to certain topics and use it to help you implement

that particular “play.”
