GBMP Gold Members can access our amazing library of Lean Training Videos, including every single one of GBMP's award-winning videos - from the first one ever, "Toast Kaizen" to our most recent, "Improvement Kata".

These are the full-length videos (which retail for $129 and up) which members can watch anytime, from anywhere, as often as they would like. Our streaming video training content also includes dozens of presentations from the past seven Northeast Lean Conferences, including sessions by John Shook, Dan Ariens, Ritsuo Shingo, Bruce Hamilton, Billy Taylor, Art Byrne, Mike Rother and many more.

Also, all ten of GBMP's Virtual Benchmark Tours are available exclusively to members to watch instantly, online, anytime, from anywhere. And, finally, exclusive member content includes podcasts of all of Bruce Hamilton's monthly "Tea Time with The Toast Dude" webinars. Whew! That's a lot of content!*
