Help teams improve continuously by having a desired operating pattern for their next improvement goal. Then, experiment to reach this operating pattern while collecting data needed to acquire new knowledge.
Scientific Thinking for Product Teams April 2021Sameh Zeid
Scientific Thinking using Toyota Kata is a way for product teams to work together to tackle ever-increasing complexity. Complexity results from interactions of parameters related to technology, requirements, technical skills, market conditions, partnering, platforms, team setup, legacy interfaces, dependencies, and more.
This session was given at Kata School Midwest event of April 2021.

Doing Analytics Right - Designing and Automating AnalyticsTasktop
There is no “one-sized fits all” of development analytics. It is not as simple as “here are the measures you need, go implement them.” The world of software delivery is too complex, and software organizations differ too significantly, to make it that simple. As discussed in the first webinar, the analytics you need depend on your unique business goals and environment.
That said, the design of your analytics solution will still require:
* The dashboards,
* the required data, and
* an appropriate choice of analytical techniques and statistics to apply to the data.
This webinar will describe a straightforward method for finding your analytic solution. In particular, we will explain how to adapt the Goal, Question, Metric (GQM) method to development processes. In addition, we will explain how to avoid “the light is brighter here” analytics anti-pattern: the idea that organizations tend to design metrics programs around the data they can easily get, rather than figuring out how to get the data they really need.
Inspired by "Moneyball" we created a tool for measuring our employees effectiveness and engagement. Data driven approach for 1:1 sessions and yearly appraisals.
Strategy Deployment: Accelerating Improvement Through Focus and AlignmentTKMG, Inc.

Businesses routinely attempt to accomplish too much and quickly lose focus when the next fire erupts or a new "shiny ball" appears.
Strategy Deployment (also known as hoshin kanri and policy deployment) is a highly effective means for creating and maintaining focus on the projects and improvement activities that lead to outstanding business performance.
Though Strategy Deployment (SD) was developed in the 1950's, it's experiencing a resurgence due to the growing popularity of Lean practices and SD's vital role in creating the climate for success.
In this webinar, you'll learn how to:
• Prioritize the laundry list of what you COULD focus on as an organization and create a "must do, can't fail" list of what you WILL focus on.
• Gain organization-wide alignment, the key to successful plan execution.
• Manage the plan to keep distractions at bay and generate the level of results all organizations are capable of.
In short, you'll learn how to accomplish meaningful improvement in a way that aligns rather than divides, and puts improvement in its rightful place as an integral part of achieving overarching business goals.

3 Tips to Improve Your Scheduling ProcessLean Systems
Scheduling employees is hard. It's hard in the simplest of cases, where all employees are the same and fill the same job. But when it gets more complicated, when employees have varying qualifications, and rules surrounding their work - like airline pilots, for example - the problem is extremely difficult.
Here are 3 tips for improving the efficiency of your scheduling process which can be applied in all industries, to any scheduling problem.
Enterprise Excellence is Inclusive Excellence.pdfKaiNexus
Enterprise excellence and inclusive excellence are closely linked, and real-world challenges have shown that both are essential to the success of any organization. To achieve enterprise excellence, organizations must focus on improving their operations and processes while creating an inclusive environment that engages everyone. In this interactive session, the facilitator will highlight commonly established business practices and how they limit our ability to engage everyone every day. More importantly, though, participants will likely gain increased awareness of what we can do differently to maximize enterprise excellence through deliberate inclusion.
What is Enterprise Excellence?
Enterprise Excellence is a holistic approach that's aimed at achieving world-class performance across all aspects of the organization.
What might I learn?
A way to engage all in creating Inclusive Excellence. Lessons from the US military and their parallels to the story of Harry Potter. How belt systems and CI teams can destroy inclusive practices. How leadership language invites people to the party. There are three things leaders can do to engage everyone every day: maximizing psychological safety to create environments where folks learn, contribute, and challenge the status quo.
Who might benefit? Anyone and everyone leading folks from the shop floor to top floor.

Putting the SPARK into Virtual Training.pptxCynthia Clay
This 60-minute webinar, sponsored by Adobe, was delivered for the Training Mag Network. It explored the five elements of SPARK: Storytelling, Purpose, Action, Relationships, and Kudos. Knowing how to tell a well-structured story is key to building long-term memory. Stating a clear purpose that doesn't take away from the discovery learning process is critical. Ensuring that people move from theory to practical application is imperative. Creating strong social learning is the key to commitment and engagement. Validating and affirming participants' comments is the way to create a positive learning environment.

Unveiling the Secrets How Does Generative AI Work.pdfSam H
At its core, generative artificial intelligence relies on the concept of generative models, which serve as engines that churn out entirely new data resembling their training data. It is like a sculptor who has studied so many forms found in nature and then uses this knowledge to create sculptures from his imagination that have never been seen before anywhere else. If taken to cyberspace, gans work almost the same way.

“A target condition is a description of a goal point on the
way to the more distant challenge. It describes in some
detail where you want to be next, but not how to get there.”
Mike Rother
1. Outcome performance metric and value
2. Achieve-by-date
3. Desired operating-pattern with a process metric
10. The overarching goal, or challenge, comes from the manager. But
the series of target conditions for getting there are designed by
teams and proposed to their manager.
This ensures goal alignment while simultaneously enabling team
self organization.
11. Process Analysis
Root Cause Analysis of 100 production issues showed that
80% of the problems are related to design phase. Our
team depends on team-1, team-2 and team-3 for
figuring-out information that the design needs. Frequently
our team could not glean this information and had to make
assumptions in-order to complete Design phase. These
assumptions fail the live test by the end customer causing
excessive production issues.

25. High-Velocity vs Low-Velocity Organizations
1. Cope with complexity by constantly
experimenting and learning about the
work they do
2. Understand and solve problems, not put
up with them. Getting rid of a problem
once and for all.
3. Try to find problems and areas to
improve in each activity they do.
4. Realize that solving a problem will often
reveal another that had been masked
by the first one.
5. Functional Integration is at the core of
work at all levels of management
everyday.
1. Lock into an approach that seems good
at the time, and – even when it proves
inadequate – stick with it and muddle
through.
2. Siloization- You do your part, I do mine.
3. Endless workarounds and firefighting
4. Rather than continual improvement,
“This will do for now”

“I hope you learn about using a checklist as the desired
operating pattern. Then, by experimenting with this
operating pattern, we can generate new knowledge to
improve our system and products.”
This can happen when teams experiment daily while coached by their manager-
using Kata Thinking as a fractal process at various levels.
