On this episode of Quality Time with MoreSteam, Ken Robinette joins host Dan Swartwout. Ken is MoreSteam's Vice President of Business Development and a Lean Six Sigma Master Black Belt. He spends his days talking with OpEx leaders about what works and where things might be headed next. Ken has also been on the road at events like the ASQ World Conference and the IISE Healthcare Conference, where he heard what OpEx and CI leaders are talking about right now. With that perspective and his decades of experience, Ken gives a real‑world look at the current state of continuous improvement, operational excellence, and Lean Six Sigma. Ken talks about what it feels like to be "afflicted with busy" in the middle of an organization. Your calendar is packed. The work keeps piling up. But guess what? Continuous improvement still needs your attention. Ken also discusses what happens when experience walks out the door and the next wave of talent might not be ready yet. When that happens, people sometimes hope that AI or a new org chart will fix it. At one point, Dan asks Ken about coaching Ad Godinez through Ohio State's Master of Business in Operational Excellence program. One morning, Ad surprised Ken by showing up at MoreSteam HQ to thank him in front of the whole company. Ad told the story from his perspective on Episode 51. Now you get to hear Ken's take. Ken also talks about his recent presentations on problem statements and game-based simulation. By the end of this episode, you may look at the current state of your own CI efforts and ask a harder question. Are we building the conditions for real improvement? Or are we just asking people to squeeze it in around everything else?
