Lean Jargon - the 3G's in English

Frequent readers of the TWI Blog may recall a serial rant I made on Lean Jargon some time ago. Subjects of those series were the three G's or three gens: genba, genbutsu and genjitsu.

If you find that the Japanese words are not helpful in getting people to remember the three G's - try and use these 3Gs in english:

Genba - Go to the workplace
Genbutsu - Get the facts
Genjitsu - Grasp the situation

It isn't exact translations, but these 3Gs are fundamentally the same. Hope this helps!
