Strategy and Leadership
A Lean success story does not happen by itself.
it cannot happen without dedicated leadership on the one hand, and a coherent, aligned strategy on the other.
However, a manager does not become a Lean leader overnight. In fact, some managers may not even heard of 'Lean' the day they're told to 'just do it'.
Lean Business France supports leaders and managers in adopting a Lean style of management :
- we provide education and coaching to executives and their management teams, both in the basics of Lean Management, and in the managerial approach that needs to be adopted,
- we organise management seminars to plot your Lean journey whilst at the same time building cohesion into your executive team. A key part of our approach is the use of creativity methods (and, yes, we're not ashamed to say it, we do also like to have fun!!) to bring out the best in your individual team members and enhance team dynamics,
- we support the development and deployment of your Lean business strategy through the use of 'Hoshin Kanri' tools and techniques to ensure that, to quote a very English expression, "you are are all singing from the same hymn sheet".
- finally, and not least importantly, we help you define the right metrics, whether it be the way you set up your Lean Accounting system, or simply structuring a Balanced Scorecard to ensure that the right things are measured, and that they are measured right.
Lean Business France firmly believes that it is the interaction between evolving Lean leaders and managers and their skilled and empowered workforces that is the key to success of any Lean project or programme, and we have the experience to ensure that your whole company is moving in the same direction.
