Its about building leadership and organizational effectiveness…Lean Leadership is - creating the Lean environment. It takes the organization to something better…different…new…Lean CULTURE.
2. Changing the Way We Work
Ideal Results Require Ideal Behaviors. Results are the aim of
every organization, but there are various methods by which
they are attained. Ideal results are those that are sustainable
over the long-term. Simply learning or buying new tools or
systems does not achieve ideal results. Great leaders
understand the cause-and-effect relationship between results
and behavior. To achieve ideal results, leaders must do the
hard work of creating an environment where ideal behaviors
are evident in every associate.
3. Smooth transition from the Day In Life Of exercise of making
effective use of a leaders time
Expectations outlined for leadership role in the operations
excellence environment
Create understanding that the leadership role is heavy upon
change and human behavior
What the leaders role is in the sustainment of a culture of
excellence
Objectives

9. What insights did you gain from the DILO exercise and the
chart reflecting your use of daily time organization?
What type of functions did you identify of Non-Value or not
effectively using your time?
Where did you conduct your value added actions/time?
Where were you the most surprised by your time utilization?
How will you prioritize your effective time utilization in the
future?
Findings from the DILO exercise
10. Lean Leadership is - creating the Lean
environment
Its about building leadership and organizational
effectiveness…It takes the organization to something
better…different…new…Lean CULTURE
11. Lean versus “Traditional” approach
Leading Lean is leading change…its about people
New “Way” through leadership
The most valuable currency of any
organization is the initiative and the
creativity of its members. Every leader
has the solemn moral responsibility to
develop these to the max in all his
people. This is the leader’s highest
priority. (Deming, 1982)
12. "We will announce it on Monday and it will be in place
that afternoon"
"We will get them to comply"
"Those that resist are troublemakers to begin with"
The Typical "Spray and Pray"
13. “The hard stuff is easy, the soft stuff is hard.”
If you understood 100% of all of the technical aspects
of Lean, you would only be 50% of the way there.
14. Traditional Leadership
Directing/telling
Controlling
Holds information/knowledge
Places blame
Results/bottom line focus/push
Manages by intimidation
Fire Fighting (jump through
hoops)
Task oriented
15. Lean Leadership Thinking is…
…systems & process focused:
Behaviours include
Leading by example
Managing by walking around/visible support
Visioning/Policy deployment
Creating sustainment through deep engagement and behaviour change
Decision Making Involves
No blame
Asking open ended questions
Continuous improvement
Finding and confirming the abnormal
Driving decisions to the lowest possible level
16. What Leadership Transitions Should be Expected?
People will want to know
how their role will
change and will
take on new
responsibility.
Employees’ roles will
become more
complex but with
less internal
reporting
Supervisors
become problem
solvers and pro-active
rather than re-active.
Middle mgmt
Responsibilities
could be redirected
and more focused.
Senior
management
becomes horizontally focused
with the right level of training
and education.
17. Leadership’s key responsibilities
Decide to start - launch and lead the Lean journey
Decide to create others as Lean leaders
Recognize:
that Lean success requires specific leadership behaviors that are
foreign to many organizations
new behaviors will have to be defined and coached at all levels
new leadership behaviors require a Role
Model….this model is “YOU”
18. Leadership’s key responsibilities
Lean Daily Leadership consist of:
HUB reviews and participation
Conducting Gemba Walks/Waste Walks
Conducting Work place review
Coaching others to lift capabilities through equipping,
encouraging, and enabling them to execute Lean
Encouraging employee involvement process to capture
improvement ideas
Lean Leadership standardized work
is a critical element in the transition
19. Leadership’s key responsibilities
Lean Daily Leadership provides solid Lean foundation
provides structure for practicing new management
behaviors
allows work groups to take process ownership
key metrics track performance at lowest process level
possible
Lean leaders develop as process is implemented
people learn best by doing - forcing implementation and
management builds commitment and understanding
Lean Daily Leadership helps sustain improvements until
new behaviors become habits
Lean Daily Leadership is the “ENABLING”
process to drive new behavior
20. Your goal is not to get rid of people, but to get rid of wrong, non-
changing behaviors
This question will be vocal (if you’re lucky) and most certainly in
the backs of everyone's mind
Complacency is a lot worse than discomfort, or even fear
Pain and unpleasantness should accompany old culture behaviors
and habits
Beware of whiners, gripers, and squeaky wheels and the time you
invest in them
One way to reward resistance is to keep the old reward
system
What’s In It for Me?
21. Commitment, Clarity and Cohesiveness:
If you are committed to becoming Lean…
There will come a time when you will have to make some
decisions that may be uncomfortable
There will be non-believers and you will have to decide
what is best for the organization as a whole
22. What Impact Should Eventually be Expected?
Greater

Flexibility
(Pro-activity)
Improved
Employee
Morale
(Retention)
More timely
& accurate
management
Information
(Better Metrics)
Stronger bottom
line & return on
investment
(Stakeholder links)
Leadership
education &
development must be an
integral part so they know
where the
organization is
going
23. Lead both organization and individuals with purpose
Value others through serving, attention, affirmation,
appreciation, equipping, empowering and engaging them
Transform mindsets within the organization to system
wide, critical, value creating thinking
Responsible steward who is accountable for and
optimizes each resource to deliver exceptional outcomes
Leadership Themes
24. Exercise #2 Breakout session – What are your key insights concerning Lean
Leadership?
• Break out into small teams
• Activity set for 10 minutes
• Identify key insights concerning Lean leadership
• What changes do you anticipate making
25. Lean is more than simple tools:
To create the desired Lean culture - leadership must
clearly:
establish the new expectations and behaviors
exemplify these in every action conducted daily
be thoroughly committed to Lean
and importantly, adhere to the concepts of change
leadership
Care harder…care enough to take the company through
The Unpopular, almost hated, struggle of
Lean culture change
26. You don’t change culture because it sounds good...you do it
because you have to
Some companies do the things to start changing culture, but
don’t have the organizational courage to see the effort
through
Some companies recognize the need for culture change,
but are deceive into thinking they can accomplish it without
pain and chaos
Leading Lean Change is heavy stuff
If you are to be successful, you will
disturb people
27. The Style of Leadership is a
key issue in promoting
Commitment towards the
implementation of Lean ! People will watch
you and follow what
you do
Leaders must take
responsibility
for their own
involvement and the
leadership of Lean
activities
Leaders must
demonstrate and
consistently lead
Lean as the right
thing to do
Effective Leaders
will inspire their
people towards
the vision
Lean Leadership Behaviors
28. Leading the culture
Lead the culture so that it produces the results looked for is
an essential role of leadership
Leadership creates experiences everyday that shape the
organization culture. From promoting people, to
implementing new policies, to interaction in meetings, or
reacting to feedback. These experiences foster beliefs about
“how things get done around here”
Optimizing the culture should command attention every bit as
much as efforts to achieve performance improvement
Neglect at your own peril
Leaders must create the needed culture
29. To achieve new results
you must create the new culture that will produce those
results
You do this by defining the needed shifts in the way people:
Believe
Act
Which create the new Experiences that will help them
adopt those desired beliefs and actions
Effective leaders understand that beliefs drive people's actions
If everyone in the org continues to think and act in the same
Manner as they do today, can you expect to achieve the results
You need to achieve
30. Create the experience
Each interaction you have with others in the organization
creates an experience that either fosters or undermines
desired beliefs. Quite simply, the experiences you provide
create the beliefs people hold
Experiences create beliefs, the right experiences create the
desired beliefs. To accelerate culture change you should ask
yourself key questions: what experiences do I need to provide
in order to create the beliefs we need in the organization
The right experiences form the desired beliefs
31. Use the HUBs to see where change has hit a “rut”
Make people personally accountable for culture change
Challenge others to challenge the processes
Act upon abnormal outcomes
Create standardized work around best practices
Be a strong leader and consider yourself on display
Avoid anything resembling hypocrisy, old culture and double
standards
Deliberately follow a style that leaves no doubt about your
beliefs
Visibility throughout the Culture Change
If no one will measure results,
why expect people to produce new improved results?

Enlist others in a common purpose, vision, and mission by appealing to share aspirations
Create work environments that are visually organized – visual management
Conduct Gemba Walks and always be the model of desired behaviors
Equip, empower and engage others as leaders and critical thinkers to challenge the process
Utilize HUBs and Daily Production Boards for real time information and correct abnormal
conditions in the shortest interval possible
Participate in Work Place Reviews and use a teaching moments
Exceptional communications: tell them what you are going to tell them, tell them, and then tell
them what you told them
Share information and seek insight from your process experts – your team members
Foster collaboration by building trust and facilitating relationships
Strengthen others by increasing their capabilities and lighting their internal flame
Encourage others through affirmation, trust, respect, and a fear free environment

52. Lean Leadership is – … Taking the
organization to the next level
Raising the bar/expectations/passion for Ideal Results
Requires Ideal Behaviors
53. EXAMPLE:
The Shingo Model™ is not an additional program or another
initiative to implement; rather, it introduces Shingo Guiding
Principles on which to anchor your current initiatives and to fill the
gaps in your efforts towards ideal results and enterprise excellence.
