Lean in Motion: How GembaDocs Brings Mobility to Monday Mornings!

We embrace the lean way in all different forms at GembaDocs, including Monday Morning stretches as part of our weekly MMM - here's our SOP for Monday morning stretches.
  • 27 February 2025
  • GembaDocs HQ

At GembaDocs, we live and breathe Lean, not just in our workflows, but in our workplace culture too. One simple yet powerful way we embody improvement is through our Monday Morning Meeting (MMM) stretches.

Why we stretch

Lean is about eliminating waste, and that includes wasted potential! Whether in our processes, our thinking, or even our physical well-being. Sitting at a desk all day? Not ideal for productivity or energy levels. So, we decided to incorporate mobility movements into our weekly kick-off meeting, keeping our team sharp, engaged, and ready for action.

Guided by expertise

To keep things simple and structured (we do love a good SOP!), we reached out to Stace Flinn (@sf_coaching_ne), who put together six easy-to-follow mobility movements. These exercises are:

  • Scalable & Accessible – No matter your fitness level, you can participate.
  • Simple & Effective – Just a few minutes make a big difference. Ours is done in 5 mins.
  • SOP-Driven – Like everything else at GembaDocs, there’s a structured approach!
Stace Flinn MMM SOP

Every Monday, a different team member takes the lead, guiding us through the movements using either Stace’s videos or a step-by-step image guide. It’s quick, energizing, and a great way to start the week with intention and movement.

Even Monty, our GembaDog, couldn’t resist joining in, though his version of stretching mostly involves sitting down or one BIG stretch!

Here’s a little look at how we’re getting on…

Big thanks to Stace for helping us make flexibility (in every sense) part of our routine. Here’s to leaner workflows, leaner meetings, and maybe even leaner hamstrings!

Want the Monday Morning Stretching SOP?

If you want to pinch our Monday Meeting Mobility SOP then here you go:

  • Static – images and descriptions
