The full level-by-level ladder — every rung side by side, current level (P1) highlighted.
Pay by level
Same pricing source as the profile's ticker header — family multiplier + inherited focus differential over the function×level base.
National-base pricing — this family's function differential is pending review, so dollar levels are not function-adjusted (level-over-level % is unaffected).
Pay rises with level — the structure that explains the most pay variance.
Mastery at this level
P1 — Starting out · new to it — knows the words, not yet the work
Seeing waste and making status visible
- Walks the floor and names the seven wastes when pointed out, but still relies on end-of-line inspection to catch defects
- Posts basic metrics boards and 5S markings so anyone can see what belongs where and whether a line is running
- Reacts to problems by expediting and firefighting rather than tracing causes
- Frames improvements in terms of this quarter's output numbers
What’s next — Foundationalat P2 → P3
Quality and efficiency come from designed flow and defect prevention at the source, not from inspection and firefighting
What to learn
- Value stream mapping, takt time, and pull/JIT scheduling mechanics
- Jidoka principles: autonomation, poka-yoke, andon, stop-the-line authority
- Structured root-cause methods (five whys, genchi genbutsu)
What to practice
- Designing a continuous-flow cell and sizing kanban
- Building error-proofing devices and in-station quality checks
- Running a disciplined problem-solving investigation to true root cause
