Key Factors in Building a Kaizen System
2021-06-23 19:30 - 20:00 | Webinar
In order to sustainably build a Kaizen strategy and an associated Kaizen system, there are a number of key factors that should be paid attention to.
Many large companies, especially in the automotive industry and their service providers, have solid lean and kaizen systems that have been successfully built up over decades and are mastering them day by day.
The processes are in place, the network is functioning. However what does it look like at the very beginning? At the big bang? Learn from Nadja Böhlmann about the basic Key facors that are important for building a sustainable Kaizen System

About Nadja Böhlmann
Nadja Böhlmann lives in the Eastern part of Germany 2 hours south of Berlin. She spent the first eight years of her professional career as an officer in the logistics department of the German Armed Force. She holds a bachelor’s degree in business administration and a master’s degree in lean operations management. After leaving the Army as a first Lieutenant, she first worked as a student trainee in the painting and drywall construction industry in the area of process optimization for construction sites at Malerwerkstätten Heinrich Schmid. Later she joined the Kaizen Institute as a Trainer and Consultant. She currently works for the Finnish family-owned company Teknos as global Group responsible for Kaizen and process development.
Already in 2009, the topics of Lean Management and Kaizen aroused and inspired her. Back then, as a student in a lecture, she was so enthusiastic about how simple methods, tactics and ways of thinking can improve and change processe. Since the lecture back then, she has never stopped thinking about Lean and Kaizen again.
From that day on, she was striving to focus her entire personal development on becoming a part of creating a better working environment for people and employees, or helping employees to be encouraged to question their own actions and to wanting to change them accordingly.
Nadja Böhlmann herself warns top executives to not start with Kaizen if they are not aware beforehand that this step of cultural change will consume a lot of energy and attention.
She says, “If you’re not willing to deal with all that, don’t start kaizen and don’t think any further about running a sustainable and growth-oriented company!”

Meet the Future with Better Organizational Learning
2021-05-26 19:30 - 20:00 | Webinar
“The greatest danger in times of turbulence is not the turbulence — it is to act with yesterday’s logic”. (Peter Drucker)
The real world is more complex than most leaders and organizations tend to admit. A learning organization adapts to the world’s complexity in three ways:

By mobilizing people’s innate desire to learn.
By developing systems thinking; and
Through simplicity

Lean and agile involve organizational learning, but first and foremost leaders must learn how their own thinking and acting impact the culture of learning in their organizations.

That’s why Karyn Ross and Jessica House have created the 5C’s of psychological safety.
During this interactive session, you will learn about each of the 5C’s and how you and your organization can begin practicing them immediately so that you can optimize learning, growth, innovation and improvement. Everyone will receive a copy of the 5C’s document following the session.

Analysis and Decision Making in Lean Companies
2021-03-17 19:30 - 20:00 | Webinar
In any company embarking on a lean transformation, in any industry, the definition of relevant and reliable information for analysis and decision-making will change in some form or fashion. A lean transformation also has an impact on the types and frequencies of analytical practices and accompanying decisions. Another way to say this is a lean transformation changes what internal customers value from a management accounting system.
For any decision-maker, information must be both relevant and reliable. Relevant information improves decision makers’ capabilities to predict future outcomes or provide more accurate feedback of performance. Reliable information represents reality at the time an analysis is performed and the quality (accuracy) and lack of bias in the analysis can be counted on.
In this webinar, you will learn:

The Economics of Lean
The relevant and reliable information needed to analyze the impact of lean and continuous improvement
How to leverage lean for financial success
Standardized work for analysis and decision-making
