Leader Standard Work poster
The leader's routine, on the same calendar as everyone else's.
The floor has standards; so does leading it. A short daily routine - board, walk, audit, actions, handover - scheduled, checked off, and visible on a calendar that shows every green day and every miss.

Also on the poster
- Scheduled, not rememberedImport the routine and it appears on Home, due today, like any check.
- The calendar tells the truthDone four of five this week - and everyone can see which day slipped.
- The layer that keeps layers honestThe daily audit checks the process; this checks that the checking happens.
- Handover in writingWhat happened, what is open, what the next shift must watch.

What the leader does daily is the only standard the floor believes.
