LEAN & OPERATIONAL EXCELLENCE

It’s our belief that True Lean only really succeeds where your people are given the environment and opportunity to learn, grow and improve.

LEAN SUCCEEDS IN LEARNING ORGANISATIONS

 

Working in collaboration with People Centred Excellence we share the goal of developing our clients to become Learning Organisations. We believe that an imperative for any organisation wanting to improve its results and performance – and build a culture where these levels are sustained and further developed – is that this is done through the involvement and engagement of their people.

Much of our teaching and coaching is based on the Toyota Production System – but we don’t teach just tools and techniques. We recognise that respect for people through development, involvement and enrichment of skills is placed in equal value at Toyota to the use of ‘lean’ tools. The fact that the TPS is a learning system appears to have been over-looked by many other training companies and consultancies. And that is where we differ.

Our methods encourage an environment where mistakes and failure are seen as key parts of an individual or teams learning. We coach people in use of the ‘scientific method’, where failures are valued as much as successes, as they promote a deeper understanding of processes.

 

We coach and train leaders in how to manage in these new environments – where their role is not one of having ‘all the answers’, but to encourage a ‘growth mindset’ within their teams and departments. Supervisors and managers become teachers and coaches themselves.

We believe that employers have a social obligation to provide meaningful work for their people, and that technology should enhance human decision making, not replace it. Finally, waste in all its forms consumes energy and resources that our planet can ill afford to be given up so lightly. Our business model and values actively support you and your people to give your customers what they want, when they want it, with minimal waste of time and resources.

People are Wonderful!
