Stronger together - sharing experiences with the Institut Lean France we have learned that lean is first a strategy, but also has its own unique leadership approach
Lean is a full business strategy. Successful lean leaders taught us that, In a volatile, uncertain, complex and ambiguous world, lean thinking shows you how to orient yourself by finding the key challenges, then lead others by facing these challenges, framing them in a way all can understand and forming solutions together, by encouraging initiative, creative ideas and rigorous testing of what works and what doesn't. It's a dynamic, people-centric strategy to eliminate waste, generate capacity for innovation and manager learning curves rather than action plans.
Success at lean depends on support everyone's individual success by developing both deeper technical expertise and the ability to teamwork every day on the job. Lean success depends on a specific lean leadership style that can be both learned, and taught to create a complete lean culture, based on learning rather than compliance
