Day 8 (3/22) On the Job in Makassar (Tranportation Agency)

We (Javier and I) worked from the home office today.  The hotel we are staying set up a room on our floor with tables and chairs, and AVB (our coordinator), got us a micro wave and refrigerator.  We started putting together our findings and developing our improvements scope and plans.  Next week we plan to do per-presentations on our plans and also training on Leading Change with the 5 department leaders.  Our thought was, by training then on leading change, they might be able to influence the the Chief of the Transportation Agency to adopt new idea's and see the value of our suggested improvements.

Our office - the spare bedroom . . .
