Improving KPIs at Kia Slovakia using Mentalytics focus training
Kia Slovakia performed a pilot with Mentalytics focus training with good results. They will now evaluate how the focus training could be implemented in their organization. The goal is to improve KPIs at production and increase well-being of their operators.
Kia Motors in Slovakia looked for a focus training product that could help them identify and improve the mental well-being of their production operators such as stress and lack of focus. The goal is to improve quality of life for the production operators and thus quality in production. For this purpose, they tested multiple products during spring 2020. Focus Mentalytics became the clear choice.
“We searched for gamified focus and stress reducing training games. I asked around and it was clear that Mentalytics is the primary leader with products I was looking for” says Vladimíra Sarvašová Mwazighe, Manager and Head of Education and Training at Kia Slovakia s.r.o.
Mentalytics product offering, Focus Mentalytics, consists of the Platform, the Training Module, and the Headband. The EEG headband has sensors that measure the electrical signals from the brain, e.g., focus. EEG has been used within clinical medicine since the 1960s. It is the technique used in scientific studies related to focus. Mentalytics was one of the first companies in the world using the technique for commercial products.
The software helps users train and improve their focus while providing deep analysis of their progress. The goal of the training is to get a better understanding and thus gain control of one’s focus.
“Mentalytics provides immediate nonverbal feedback to the trainee on his/hers actual well-being, what works and what could be changed. So simple and straightforward for desired result improvement” says Marek Kozárik, Shift Leader Assembly Kia Slovakia s.r.o.
To use Focus Mentalytics, you put on the EEG headband, connect it via Bluetooth, log in to the platform and launch the training module; a futuristic racing game that responds to the player’s focus in real time. After approximately ten minutes of training, you return to the platform and analyze the results. Through years of experience Mentalytics has developed a training program that spans over 30 days, where the goal is to ensure a positive outcome for the user.
“After successful result of neuroscience-based stress and work life balance development training we have decided to pilot 30Dayschallenge with Mentalytics in production and the result is very pleasing, 35% improvement of quality miss faults in average following 3 months. This result was measured during the worst days of pandemic Covid 19 crisis. We plan to test furthermore and give feedback to Mentalytics helping them develop the focus program for our production operators.” says Vladimíra Sarvašová Mwazighe.
The platform also provides a connection between focus and various (self-estimated) health parameters which brings additional info to the coach/team manager about the well-being of the person.
“We were also analysing the impact of shift rotation on production workers. It has opened our eyes to several factors directly on the production line where we acted with immediate issue solutions. This product is an eye opener for each production leader as you see results directly on the spot. Wellbeing of production operators is a key element to their results and their internal wellbeing” says Marek Kozárik.
With these excellent results, Kia will now further evaluate how Focus Mentalytics can be implemented at Production shop floors.
“To be able to implement and use our products in such a large organization as Kia is an excellent opportunity for us to display the benefits of focus training whilst also having a direct positive impact on the welfare of the users” says Charlie Ohlén, CEO Mentalytics
