Kaizen and LeanTech operating model

Service Description

This service involves activities to embed LeanTech excellence and Kaizen as standard work practices in service and tech businesses. The service involves establishing an operating model for Kaizen in and across the teams, and we help you facilitate systemic Kaizen events. We also look to develop Sensei competencies in leadership at all levels. Designing a LeanTech Kaizen operating model: - This initial advisory phase helps you design an operating model for LeanTech, making headroom for Kaizen, - We look to progressively establish a context for integrating improvement activities at team and system levels. The context needs to develop focused time, practices, visualisation, governance, measures, ownership, accountability, discipline, etc., - We establish an increment, we realise it, and we set the next increment, etc., until the system and leadership are self-sustaining about it, Organising Kaizen events: - Kaizen events enable the practice of Kaizen at the system level, across the teams. We establish a synchronised time when people from different specialities self-organise to solve problems collaboratively, - Such events require preparation and facilitation, - We also include education points to Kaizen techniques, - We establish Kaizen Sponsor and Lead roles and coach those roles through the event, learning from practical experience, - The Kaizen events wrap up by demoing the decisions and establishing how the solutions will integrate into standard work. We have had great success creating a genuine culture and leadership of improvement from this service. Please book some time to establish how to start your journey of establishing a Kaizen and LeanTech operating model.
