Your Visual Roadmaps to Operational Excellence
Visual Workplace : Visual Thinking (2ND EDITION)
CREATING ENTERPRISE EXCELLENCE THROUGH THE TECHNOLOGIES OF THE VISUAL WORKPLACE
Gwendolyn Galsworth spent three decades establishing the field of workplace visuality and codifying it into a clear and useable model of thinking and implementation: her 10-Doorway Model. This ground-breaking book, written by a hands-on practitioner, is considered by many as the definition of the field itself.
“Galsworth’s unique methodology provides a workplace that allows employees to think differently—to think visually. I know of no other book that guarantees such high levels of organizational ownership, self-leadership, and therefore sustainment.”
Peter Dobbs, Director of Organizational Transformation, Rolls-Royce plc.
While other books touch upon visual tools and practices, Gwendolyn explains the topic with clarity and depth through concepts, principles, stories, case studies, models, and hundreds of photos of actual visual devices and mini-systems.
It is the first and only book to date that describes the conceptual and practical foundation of the technologies of the visual workplace, explains the eight categories of visual functions—including (but not limited to) visual standards, visual scheduling, visual leadership, visual order/visual inventiveness (her 5Son-Steroids), and the visual machine®. Positioning visual management in its proper order of importance, this book carries the reader from the 5S starting point through to the full power of a visually-transformed enterprise.
Learn how visuality teaches people to think, eliminates abnormalities, sustains lean gains, and aligns and unifies the work culture. Visual Workplace-Visual Thinking, winner of the Shingo Prize, is Dr. Galsworth’s acclaimed seminar in book form—and much, much more.

Work That Makes Sense: Operator-Led Visuality (2ND EDITION)
Creating and Sustaining Visuality on the Value-Add Level
How much will your operators contribute—if you let them? How far will your value-add associates go to help you improve safety, quality, on-time delivery, and your profit margins—if you train them to?
Work That Makes Sense (WTMS) teaches your employees to think, detect challenges, and solve problems—visually. It is the complete implementation manual that teaches you how to train, implement, coach, and support your value add associates the visual way to improve their work areas, and grow into self-leaders so that your company becomes self-informing, self-explaining, self-regulating, self-improving, and self-sustaining.
“Gwendolyn Galsworth, the world’s foremost visual workplace expert, has not just written a fine book about making operations visual, she—alone amongst writers on this topic—has detailed what it takes to make that a system. Read Work That Makes Sense!”
Richard Schonberger, author: Best Practices in Lean, Let’s Fix It!, World Class Manufacturing
Based on more than 30 years in the field, Dr. Galsworth provides the step-by-step method, the tools, the stories, and hundreds of full-color examples of visual devices that front-line associates (the real hands-on experts in your company) need to understand what a visual workplace is, why it’s important to their daily work, and how to create one. Bonus material spells out sixteen key tasks for leaders so they can pro-actively coach and support a WTMS conversion.
Imagine if the answers to all the questions your employees have were visually embedded into the living landscape of work. What would they do with all that liberated time?
What would your company do? What would they become? What would your company become? Learn and implement Gwendolyn Galsworth’s operator-lead visuality and find out.
