“Culture beats strategy every time”
We support you in creating culture in a very practical manner. In order to change we need to establish new patterns. Patterns are created by repetition. We systemize the pattern of working with improvements and by doing so we secure that change stick!
Good Stuff Happens in 1:1 Meetings: Why you need them and how to do them well
Increase your competitiveness. Build your ability to improve!
1. To measure ”how Lean you are” should be done in your ability
to continuously improve your business over time. The only thing
which is certain is change. Therefor we need to grow a culture,
capacity and the needed skills to improve over time.
We need put trust in teams and individuals in order to empower. We
also need discipline and structure to increase awareness. This kind
of culture most integrate into day-to-day operations or it will most
probably fail. It should be part of our thinking and spine. When we look
on our work with the mindset of
continuously improving we have
built a culture which will survive and
thrive in the marketplace of
tomorrow. Key here is to systemize
the way we find, select and drive
improvement work.
DEK Technologies have long
experience in this area. We have
been in the high tech Information
and communications technology
(ICT) since the company was
formed. Besides our technical
excellence our ability to improve
over time is our greatest knowledge.
We have implemented a systemized way of managing improvement
work in-house, in our teams on customer assignments and in our
customers teams and organizations.
So we have a very simple but powerful way of building our ability
to improv. No magic, no big-bangs, no big effort. We support you in
creating culture in a very practical manner. In order to change we need
to establish new patterns. Patterns are created by repetition. We
systemize the pattern of working with improvements and by doing so
we secure that change stick!
We do it by experience and a set of simple services;
• Establishing the Plan, Do, Check and Act (PDCA) cycle
• Driving envisioning to establish direction.
• Grasping the current condition of your organization or part of it.
• By knowing direction and current condition we set the next
target condition.
• Building in the PDCA cycle to your current way of working
(work cycle planning, implementation and retrospective).
• Train your staff in the simple work cycle.
• Train your staff in Agile and Lean values in order to identify
improvements in the current process by looking at it in value stream
and waste reduction perspective.
Though there are some “bi-
products” of our services;
•Empowerment of your teams.
•Self-organization in your teams
(only comes from making the
employees owners of their work,
result and maintaining it over time).
•Cross-functionality in your teams
(only comes from degrees of self-
organization and the realization of
flow efficiency in the value stream).
•Waste removal and flow efficiency
in your processes / value stream.
•A potential shift in leadership where
we go from telling (command & control) to removal of impediments
and monitoring progress.
We see it as very positive side effects. Actually these kind of effects
can only be obtained through in such a way. We need to put trust in our
teams and employees. By being trusted we commit. By committing
we take on accountability. By being accountable we take
ownership. By ownership we create results and sustainable value.

Culture bets strategy - that’s a fact. To build culture we need to engage our employees. Empower and make them
accountable. Support them in taking on ownership. To succeed in this transition we need give them the tools to build
their own ability to improve and mature over time. The greatest motivator are purpose and progress in influencing one
owns work in context of our business needs. We help you get going with very practical means!
