I find this training useful, since it hepled me to get the basics of what Obeya is and how it can be implemented in the organization. I would have appreciated to see more examples of how other organisations are running it.
Irene Trimmel –
I really enjoyed the combination of theory and practice and am looking forward to a follow up training in the future.

Tim, I want to thank and congratulate you on the training you provided and are providing. I think it is excellent and a good mix of concepts and intent with practical activities to reinforce the concepts and let learners have hands on experience to take with
them. I don’t have any obvious things for improvement and having taken the course I am reinvigorated and also made re aware of the importance of planning and commitment from leadership for any initiative to have a chance of helping teams long term. The training
has also given me thoughts of how to support others in my organization. I hope we can work together in some way on that.

Thought Tim was very good at articulating challenges and proposed solutions. He quickly understood some of the pitfalls mentioned and was able to provide appropriate examples. Liked the presentation style and the relaxed nature of the conversation. Thinking
about an ‘even better if’… Wonder if it could be beneficial to have some short pre-requisite reading or briefing to help create alignment on the intended outcomes of the session (felt like some people came into it expecting something different… not wrong,
just different).

Super interesting content and clearly a beneficial tool. Due to the topic being new to most participants some terms need more time to sink in before we start to use them. Also would be nice to allow a bit more time within the sessions for elaborate discussions
that are directly relevant to our team, i.e. how WE can use what we’ve just learned, but that might mean the training needs to be four days… All in all, interesting and inspiring sessions with knowledgeable coaches.

This is a well organised training session with lot of materials and activities to keep you engaged and also prompting you to think in terms of implementing it for your project. The indicators section is a challenging to grasp especially for new projects.
Carien Leeuwen –
Tim knows how to explain the material clearly and to lead the discussions in directions that you can benefit from it.

I was very excited about the training and hope we can put it into practice soon. Tim was great. Very nice way of training and he also remained very constant and straightforward. If there is a pilot Kata coaching, I am highly recommended 🙂

Ingrid Leijen –
Learned a lot in the training, both about obeya and leadership. Very pleasant trainer, relaxed atmosphere and nice group of students. Gives a lot of food for thought and it gives good guidelines on how to use the material in practice. Great that I got this opportunity to participate, thank you very much!

Fun, interesting training with plenty of room for interaction, sharing examples and asking questions.
Inge Boot –
Good structure of the training, balance between space for conversation and accelerating. Completely digital from a small studio. Respectfully and well done with a group of ‘critical’ participants.
Jos van Minderhout –
Good training, a combination of Leadership and Obeya. Sometimes discussion with participants could have a little more focus and feedback on theory.
Femke Mastboom –
I wanted more tools to connect the world of implementation and management in a meaningful way: how great when decisions made by directors and the value that the workplace creates reinforce each other as much as possible. Tim Wiegel’s very insightful, and at times confrontational, training on Toyota’s #obeya did not disappoint me! The combination of Visual Management and Agile techniques from #obeya are very practical and very inspiring! Thank you for this beautiful training.
