Implementing a Lean Management System focuses on the core beliefs and leadership practices that enable you to make a Lean a way of life – consistently across all work units and groups in your organization.  The key is changing what leaders actually do – their daily work habits, attitudes and behaviours.

Without leader’s who “walk-the-talk” of Lean, it simply won’t happen.

• Understand the core management tools and practices that make Lean Management successful
• To fully assess the impact of Lean Management on your organizations leadership style and practices
• Follow a step-by-step roadmap for implementing a Lean Management System

Lean Management is based on the Toyota Production System and the work of David Mann at Steelcase.  David in his book, “Creating a Lean Culture” describes Lean Management as “the missing piece in Lean implementation puzzle.  His structured approach to implementing standard work for leaders and ensuring leadership accountability are key elements that make this process work where many others have failed.
