Toyota has been through the “wringer” recently with major events impacting their lean supply chain operations.

The top executives who have lived through these issues have offered our Southern

California Roundtable an opportunity to hear them discuss the following questions they had to face.

What do you do when your supply chain slams shut?

How does being “lean” add to the problems of serving your customers?

How does a “Lean System Thinking” culture help the speed of the recovery?

How do suppliers, factories, logistics, sales, distributors and dealers contribute to minimize the customer impact and speed recovery?

What roles do sales, service, parts procurement andlogistics, vehicle logistics, manufacturing and other functions play?

How does “Lean System Thinking” relate to supply chain complexity, flexibility, and responsiveness?

How do data systems and communications come into play?

You’re invited to join us at the Toyota Auto Museum for a networking event and to

spend an hour with a panel of Toyota Senior Executives who lived through these crisis and led their recovery in a way that quickly

returned Toyota back to it’s leadership as the most valuable and respected automotive brand.

Brief presentations followed by lots ofopportunities for you to get your questions answered!

Then join with the Toyota team and your industry peers for a great networking session complete with refreshments.

Register early as we are sure this will be a sellout.

Our last event at Toyota sold out in less than 3 days!
