Lecture by Akio Toyoda: The Endless Fight to Restore “the Essence of Toyota” | Toyota Times News

“It was all a fight.” Chairman Akio Toyoda left this comment for the Toyota Times camera and headed to the venue. On January 13, the chairman presented a lecture on the theme of the Toyota Production System (TPS) to 200 corporate managers and executives gathering for the general meeting of the NPS Management Institute. The theme of the lecture was “What TPS Means to Me – The Fight to Restore Authority to the Genba.” It was 90 minutes long, including the speech and a Q&A session. Unable to escape the label of “the Toyota prince,” Chairman Akio was always struggling with the question, “Who am I?” He found emotional support in his relationship with TPS. Words like Kanban card, Andon, and Poka-yoke do not appear in the lecture. It focuses on TPS as a management philosophy rather than just as a manufacturing practice. After the lecture was a Q&A session with attendees. “What do you change and not change as a business leader?” “What is the mindset of a leader?” “What message do you have for future generations?” Our digest is a packed 60 minutes of business leader Akio Toyoda’s story of his constant fight to insist on genchi-genbutsu and realities.
