Effective teams and decision-making

The obeya concept originated in Japan and is often used in Lean and Agile practices. Obeya refers to a physical or virtual space where multidisciplinary teams come together to promote effective collaboration, problem solving and decision-making. The word “obeya” itself means “big room” or “war room” in Japanese.

What is Obeya?

A ROOM OF TRANSPARENCY

Obeya is actually a kind of special room where people come together to solve problems and make decisions. It is a place where you collect and visualize important information, such as graphs, charts and post-its. That way you can see and understand everything clearly. In the obeya room, you can talk to each other, share ideas and work together to achieve better results. It helps teams work more efficiently and solve problems faster. So basically, Obeya is just a convenient and smart way to organize things and collaborate.
