Lean culture should be developed so that the goal to improve a
process or business condition on a continuous basis can be
achieved. Organizations with a lean culture have reaped many
successful experiences in implementing lean, so it is seen as a
legitimate methodology for organizations. New employees coming into
an organization that has a lean culture will be taught to see,
think, and feel from a lean perspective in dealing with problems in
their job. Lean needs to be a cultural mindset for all for an
organization to remain successful. The effort to build a lean
culture relies on the support and active participation of leaders
as the agents of change. Research shows that the success of a lean
implementation is around 50% depending on leadership, while the
remaining 30% is on finance, 10% on organization and culture, and
10% on skills and expert human resources. In general, leaders play
a role in developing subordinates, problem-solving skills, and
producing various continuous improvement efforts. In addition,
leaders are responsible for encouraging subordinates to
continuously use problem-solving tools as part of their efforts to
improve their skills and deal with bigger problems. This book
focuses on leadership and the tools required to support a lean
initiative. Understanding the basic and valuable tools of lean
provides the foundation for leaders in support of their
organization initiative. Topics in the book include a description
of the eight wastes, organizational level process mapping, lean
metrics, and developing a future position. The author includes a
discussion and samples of basic lean tools such as Kanban, standard
work, and visual management. The author also describes the tools
each leader needs to be successful with in creating a culture of
lean thinking, including the leader task board, the process
performance board, and process walk.
