**Online Intro to Value Stream Mapping Workshop: Learn practical tools to Visualize, analyze, optimize your workflows**

**What You'll Learn**

In this hands-on 1-hour workshop, you'll map a delivery workflow, identify bottlenecks, and apply lean principles to improve your delivery’s effectiveness.

**What is Value Stream Mapping?**

**Value Stream Mapping (VSM)** is designed to help teams achieve a **specific business outcome** by improving **work processes**.

In a series of **group mapping activities**, teams **visualize the flow of work** from start to finish, identify **inefficiencies**, **delays**, and **waste**. The team uses what they’ve learned to create a **roadmap of measurable improvement actions**, in service of delivering more **value to the customer**.

Originally developed at Toyota in the 1940s, value stream mapping helps teams visualize workflows to eliminate waste and deliver value faster. [More info.](https://migueldias.eu/blog/2025-05-19-what-is-vsm/)

**Workshop Agenda**

1. Arrival and Introductions (5 min)
2. Quick Introduction to Value Stream Mapping (5 min)
3. Hands-on Mapping Exercise (30 min)
4. Group Discussion on Constraints & Solutions (15 min)
5. Action Planning & Next Steps (5 min)

**Logistics**

The call opens at start time, and it's first-come, first-serve - the first 10 people to join get to participate! If we're at capacity when you arrive, try again next time, or reach out about booking an exclusive workshop for you and your team!

I'm choosing this approach for 2 reasons:

* What counts is whether you show up to the workshop, not how far in advance you've booked it
* Online sessions work best when they're short and small so everyone gets time to participate and ask questions
