Virtual Whiteboards for OpEx Simulations, DMS, and Facilitation

This summary outlines how Peter demonstrates the versatile use of MURAL, ranging from simulations and training to remote team management, project tracking, and collaborative improvements.

1. Introduction to MURAL Session:

   • Elizabeth Swann moderates a session titled "How to Use MURAL for Simulations, Huddle Boards & Project Delivery."
   • Peter Cullen, a continuous improvement leader with vast experience, demonstrates the use of MURAL for various purposes.

2. MURAL for Simulations:

   • Adapting traditional in-person lean training to a virtual environment due to COVID-19 restrictions.
   • Demonstrating a coin flip exercise through MURAL with global participants for real-time simulation and training.

3. Remote Team Management via MURAL:

   • Using MURAL for remote team check-ins, understanding team energy levels, and managing activities across the team.
   • Visualizing development plans and utilizing links to dashboards for deeper insights (though rarely accessed due to comprehensive data on the huddle board).

4. Project Tracking and Management:

   • Utilizing MURAL for tracking strategic projects via a huddle board, providing a visual overview of project status, forward steps, and response plans.
   • Linking to Excel for a Gantt chart view to identify scheduling conflicts and project overlaps.

5. Iterative Improvements and Collaboration:

   • Highlighting the evolution of the MURAL board through recorded iterations and improvements made over time.
   • Encouraging visibility and participation from team members, even though online collaboration lacks some of the energy and interaction found in face-to-face settings.

Course Forward:

•  If you'd like to see how we use Mural in our Simulations, Problem-Solving boards, and DMS boards, we'd be glad to show you.  Simply email us at [email protected].
• If you liked the idea of doing Simulations in Mural, learn here why our Simulations are a Game-Changer with a Blended-Learning approach!

• And if you'd like to go forward with Mural Simulation, why not make it easy on yourself?

  • You don’t need to buy Lego sets, you don’t need to schedule or plan the events, you don’t have to tie up your CI resources to teach for 8 hours in one day.
  • We do it all for you, and we do it all virtually or in a hybrid setting!
