Book Description

Small-group activities--or self-directed work teams--are an extremely important element of individual, as well as organizational development. They are a means of stretching an employee's abilities while at the same time boosting your company's business achievements. But when small group activities fail, it's usually because the group was never properly trained.

Here's when small group activities succeed: When management sets the vision, and then successfully transfers that vision to the group along with the power to carry it out. But a group needs guidance.

Go-Go Tools is a fresh new book that gives you a concise -- just five powerful tools is all it takes -- and creative set of tools to clearly establish management objectives. The book helps you connect these objectives with your employees through self-directed work teams.

The Five Tools:

  • Pocket Matrix
  • VW (Volume-Weight)
  • 5-Why
  • F-F (Fact-Finding)
  • Idea Mapping

The purpose of the tools is to allow small groups to solve problems expertly and quickly. For your benefit, the tools have been clearly arranged so that each corresponds to a definite step of the problem-solving process. So use this energizing guide to breathe new life into your small group activities and increase the effectiveness of your teams, meetings, and improvement processes. Lead and motivate your team to successfully carry out simple, yet powerful improvements that will continuously build their loyalty and enthusiasm towards your improvement efforts.

Why Go-Go?

This name was chosen because the word "Go" means "five" in Japanese. In Go-Go Tools, there are five tools, and each tool has five steps. Go-Go also conveys a sense of energy and excitement -- a great foundation to begin your small group activities!
