• Describe how you would apply the lessons in Liker’s Giving Wings to Her Team in an organization of your choice (e.g., private company; government lab; public organization, etc.). This may be a place where you currently work, a place you aspire to work, or simply a place that intrigues you and you’d like to learn more about them.
• Begin by describing the organization, including what they do, what their organizational structure is, and anything that you’ve learned about their culture.
• Assume next that you’ve been hired by them as a new engineering manager; the level of your position and size of your internal team is completely up to you but please explain.
• Similar to the book, assume you were also hired based on completing 1E600 and your desire to implement Toyota Kata within this new organization. How would you go about introducing this to your team, your peers, and your senior leaders? What would work and why? What would not work as well and why?
