In Lean Manufacturing, meeting deadlines is critical for efficiency and continuous improvement. If a team member keeps missing deadlines, it’s vital to address the issue promptly and constructively. Here’s how to tackle it:

• Identify root causes: Understand why the team member is missing deadlines. It could be due to unclear expectations, lack of resources, or personal challenges.

• Offer support and training: Provide additional training or resources if the team member lacks the necessary skills or tools.

• Set clear expectations and follow up: Establish clear deadlines and regularly check in to ensure progress is on track.
