Toyota Way 2001
Sharing the Toyota Way Values
The Guiding Principles at Toyota reflect the kind of company that Toyota seeks to be. The Toyota Way 2001 clarifies the values and business methods that all employees should embrace in order to carry out the Guiding Principles at Toyota throughout the company's global activities.
With the rapid growth, diversification and globalization of Toyota in the past decade, the values and business methods that had been passed on as implicit knowledge were identified and defined in 2001. Toyota is preparing to operate as a truly global company, guided by a common corporate culture.
In order to continue fulfilling its role as the backbone of all Toyota operations, the Toyota Way must evolve amid an everchanging business environment. Toyota will continue to update it in the future to reflect changes in the times.
The Toyota Way is supported by two main pillars: 'Continuous Improvement' and 'Respect for People'. We are never satisfied with where we are and always work to improve our business by putting forward new ideas and working to the best of our abilities. We respect all Toyota stakeholders, and believe the success of our business is created by individual effort and good teamwork.
Human Resources Development by the Toyota Institute
To promote sharing of the Toyota Way, the Toyota Institute was established in January 2002 as an internal human resources development organization.
Since 2003, overseas affiliates in North America (U.S.), Europe (Belgium), Asia (Thailand and China), Africa (South Africa) and Oceania (Australia) have established their own human resources training organizations modeled after the Toyota Institute.
Even when they highlight certain rules and principles, Toyota managers do take decisions and implement in deviation with them, if they are beneficial in the light of circumstances. They are very rational and apply all alternative decision making methods to problems.
Toyota makes efforts to adopt all new innovations in management and industrial engineering by monitoring developments in the subjects and acquiring understanding of them at various levels.
