Workshops
Live, hands-on programs for founders, product teams, and engineering orgs adopting agentic development. The format runs the full production line — by the end, you have shipped something real.
What the workshops are
Gemba Flow workshops are taught directly by the author of the framework. Every program walks through the same factory floor it was designed for: ideation, scoping, build, review, last-mile delivery. The goal is not slideware — it is a working product, deployed, observable, with the right guardrails on it.
Programs are calibrated to the audience. A founder cohort optimizes for shipping an MVP. A corporate engineering team optimizes for adopting the practices into their existing repo and review culture. Both formats use the same harness.
Formats
| Format | Audience | Length | Outcome |
|---|---|---|---|
| MVP intensive | Founders, technical founders, solo builders | Multi-week, remote | A deployed MVP in a live environment, plus the harness wired up to keep building. |
| Corporate training | Engineering teams, platform groups, agentic-AI working groups | 1–3 days, on-site or remote | The team adopts Gemba Flow practices on a real internal project, with controls calibrated to their compliance posture. |
| Founder cohort | Small group of founders, mixed industries | Multi-week, remote, cohort-based | Each founder ships their own MVP. Cohort accountability + 1:1 walkthroughs. |
What makes them work
- Real product, not exercises. Participants bring real problems. By Day 1 you have a PRD; by the end you have a deployed system.
- The harness does the heavy lifting. You learn the supervision moves — the gemba walks, the Ready column, the merge decision — not Bash incantations.
- One-piece flow on the curriculum. Each session unblocks the next, the same way each bootstrap phase unblocks the next. No filler.
- Cross-industry by design. Past cohorts have skewed healthtech (founder’s network), but the framework is industry-agnostic. The practices transfer.
Healthtech note. If you’re a healthtech founder reading this — yes, prior cohorts have been heavily healthtech. That’s an accident of the founder’s network, not a market focus. The same controls and gates work for fintech, B2B SaaS, consumer, internal tools.
Who it’s for
- Founders who want to ship without hiring a full team yet, and who refuse to fly blind with autonomous agents.
- Engineering leads evaluating how to bring agentic development into a team that already ships code.
- Platform groups defining the guardrails their org will use for AI-assisted development.
What you leave with
- A deployed product (MVP intensive) or a working pilot on a real repo (corporate).
- A configured Gemba Flow project — agents, board, branch protection, preview envs, CI gates.
- The supervision habits: how to walk the line, where to look, when to merge, when to send back.
- A reusable mental model for evaluating any agentic-AI tool that lands on your desk next quarter.
What attendees say
“Teddy is such a patient and detailed instructor. He really helps you understand the concepts (especially if non technical). I would love to attend more! He literally wants to see your project come to life before doing anything else. I can't wait til the next session or hackathon!”
Booking
Cohorts and corporate engagements are scheduled directly with the founder. Use the contact options on the project repository to start the conversation; the right next step is usually a 30-minute call to scope outcomes and format.
