Standard Work for Leaders is a lean approach and method to enable leaders to provide daily support in both strategy deployment and culture development. The leaders follow a three step process of developing the daily standard tasks to check on strategy deployment, installing visual management at the value stream to understand the progress and results, and finally using the Gemba walk to ensure daily progress.
Most lean-agile transformations are missing a critical ingredient to sustain their improvements: a Lean Management System. A Lean Management System is an approach to running an organization that can not only sustain the improvements from their lean transformation but continuously improve as well.

Autonomous Team organizational structures have been overlooked as a culture for continuous improvement. It is now being recognized as the "what's next." However there are fundamental requirements organizations must consider before beginning this people and business rewarding culture.
The 4th component – fast knowledge sharingLean Teams USA
Fast knowledge sharing is a key component for any organization. Having critical process knowledge at the application provides a business pace unmatched by most competitors.
Business process design, notwithstanding the type of business, follows steps that are all encompassing of meeting the business needs. Process visual management is then designed to ensure this design is working and continuously improving.
The 3rd component - Organization Structure for SustainmentLean Teams USA
Hierarchy organization structures have been with us since the 1800's. It is clear they maintain command and control from the leadership running these types of organizations. Although because of hanging on to this command and control management style they are also slow. It is time to start changing these structures and this presentation describes an organizational structure type that has proven to work.
WEBINAR: How Leaders Successfully Support Lean Six Sigma Projects (Leadership)GoLeanSixSigma.com

Agile speaks of putting people first; however in my experience, people are the poor stepchild to process and tools. It’s not about getting scrum teams “more agile” it’s about shaping the organization's culture to support agile development. It’s necessary to understand the areas needed to create a culture that supports agile development. We have to wonder, are we asking ourselves the right questions? How do we engage our staff to create an agile workforce? How do we hire the right people? What is a manager's role in this new self-organized culture? How do we motivate those people? How do we connect them with the customer? It’s about embodying the spirit of agility to get all the magic of a startup and scaling that across a large organization.
In this session, we will talk about building your organization’s culture to support scaling organizational agility to keep the team passionate and purposeful.
Format: Presentation
Target Audience: Agile Coaches, Human Resources, Leaders, and Change Agents
Building a Lean Culture takes more than just tools training for the front-line. A holistic approach that leaders embrace is more effective.

If We Are Agile, Why Do We Need Managers? (sv-aln, 7.14)Ron Lichty
A common misconception about agile is that managers are unnecessary. After all, agile is based on self-organizing teams. If the teams organize themselves, what do managers do?
Unfortunately, most scrum training plays into that. Think about it: how many trainers or coaches have you seen sketch the structure of a scrum team with a drawing that includes a manager? While there's always a scrum master and a product owner, the core team and maybe some stakeholders, have you ever seen a manager in that drawing?
This misconception can be a problem all around: A frequently cited barrier to agile adoption is managers who don't know what to do when their teams become self-managing. When they're not included in training, how would they (or anyone else, for that matter) know how to characterize their role. At the same time, organizations often lay down expectations of managers, some compatible with agile, some not.
Agile has clearly shifted the old roles and responsibilities. Managers bent on command-and-control are clearly a barrier to agile adoption. But managers who take a hands-off approach or are treading water in a sea of ambiguity will almost certainly stymie adoption, as well.
Ron Lichty believes (and so do a lot of the early agile thought leaders) that managers have critical roles to play in enabling success, both of transitions to agile and of agile itself. This session is about those roles.
The Value Management SIG presented Chris Samson and Daniel Rahamim from London Underground who offered an insight to the organisational approach of implementing Lean principles in one of London Underground's major upgrade programmes.
Want to ensure everything you do adds value to your business? Want to make a real difference to business performance and customer satisfaction?
This challenge was taken up by London underground’s Sub Surface Upgrade Programme (SUP) 18 months ago amidst a time of cost savings, programme review and ever increasing expectations and scrutiny from our stakeholders and customers.
HCI Webinar: Changing a Company Culture, One Technological Performance Module...Cornerstone OnDemand
Sometimes the best systems aren’t all in place when it comes to talent management. Processes may need improvement and people likely want more support, but a knowledge gap and lack of experience in change management blocks companies from adopting the finest practices and implementing helpful technology. Success, as seen by leaders, is achieved by doing what works best for the business. Top managers take on the constant task of determining how to make each process more efficient and improve what’s needed to maximize productivity.
What does a Scrum Master do all day if a Daily Scrum is only 15 minutes? This talk - “A Day in the Life of a Scrum Master” - will explore the role beyond simple facilitation of the Sprint Ceremonies. Attendees learn four different areas of focus for a balanced approach to the role.

Tax return preparation is increasingly becoming a commodity. Automation can help reduce the level of manual work required for return preparation, but if you automate a “bad process” you still won’t see an increase in profitability or improved client service.
Tax practices should apply Lean Six Sigma (LSS) before automating their tax workflows to optimize processes and automation, while still remaining in compliance with professional standards.
Attend this webinar and you’ll learn how to:
- Apply Lean Six Sigma to tax workflow
- Combine tax automation with value pricing
- Increase your practice’s profitability

Project Storyboard: Reducing Cycle Time for Bid Tab Creationby 33%GoLeanSixSigma.com
Think it's impossible to make a significant change in government? Well, it's not easy, but GoLeanSixSigmna.com Black Belt Pamela Kuehling made a real difference from the inside. She overturned countless "honest wrong beliefs" with facts and data by modeling the Lean Six Sigma approach in her work and won over the doubters.
Initially the overall procurement process was the focus, but when that proved to be too big, she scoped it down to a more manageable project that can now be the basis for an expanded improvement. Her improvement was meaningful, but a bigger victory was in bringing critical and logical thinking into an environment often impacted by less scientific influences!

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.
Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.
