Toyota Way Fieldbook : A Practical Guide for Implementing Toyota's 4Ps

7. The number of people fully trained for each job are totaled and recorded
   at the bottom of the sheet. This allows the supervisor to monitor progress
   toward achieving the ideal number of people for each job.


8. Any additional manpower needs are recorded here. Some people may
   have only slight problems remaining on some tasks, which are noted here.


9. Any future production changes are noted in this space; for example, if
   production will increase or perhaps a key person will be out on leave.


10. Dates are added where there is an individual or job need that mandates
    training. The dates are used to schedule the actual training. The timing
    should be based on immediate and long-term needs.
    An example of a completed form is shown in Figure 11-3. The trainer and
    supervisor collectively evaluate the progress and skill level of each individual.
    There is no benefit to the leader in attempting to make the evaluations appear
    better than they actually are. Poor job skills will be reflected in the performance
    measures, and the leaders have a vested interest in having exceptionally skilled
    people. Shortcutting the training process will not provide the long-term benefits
