why this session?

Nowadays, scaling Agile is in the pipe of Agile Change Agents and some interesting essays are emerging like SAFe, LESS, DaD, etc…
In other hand, discussions on Kanban are climbing in the organization matrix and try to address both Portfolio and Governance.
Beyond Budgeting explains that we need to have Leadership actions and Management processes linked to those Leadership actions.
Purpose of this session is to ask the audience: can be Hoshin Kanri seen as a glue binding all these together in an agile sense making manner?

Total Quality Management
Each individual in an organisation is recognised as being the expert in
their own job
Humans seek recognition
Want to be involved
Motivated by a desire to be recognised as a contributor to the success of
the community to which they belong
Japanese Total Quality Management (TQM) is founded on the principles that each individual in an organisation is recognized as being the expert in their own job, that humans seek recognition
and want to be involved and are motivated by a desire to be recognized as a contributor to the success of the community to which they belong.
-Gilles Allain
The overall objective … is to attempt to create an organisation … in
which the collective thinking power and job knowledge of all of these
individuals is galvanised into a programme in which everyone is
working both individually and collectively to work towards making
their organisation the best in its field, both in fact and in the eyes of
its customers, and all other interested parties.

There are several translations of Hoshin Kanri. This is my favorite!
10 principles
1. establish a company motto, quality
policy, and promotion plan
2. devise long term and medium term
management strategy
3. collect & analyze the information
4. plan the targets and means
5. set the control items (kpis) and prepare
the control item list
6. deploy the policy
7. deploy the control items
8. implement the policy plan
9. check the results of implementation
10.prepare the status report for
implementing hohin kanri
9
Plan-Do-Check-Act (PDCA) is the driver of these principles.
Organization as a flow
10
Our objective is to build a company as a flow, a company as a pull system.
Here is the junction between Lean Thinking, Kaizen and Agile. An organization as a pull system changes the traditional paradigm of the company organizational iceberg in a system thinking
approach.
Like John Seddon explained at the 1st Lean Kanban Conference in Antwerp (2010): Middle Office is a Buffer, Back Office is a cost centre, everybody should be at the Front.
Hoshin Kanri
What is our mission?
Top down and bottom up
Catchball process
PDCA
Less is more
Simple strategy = refined thinking

What is your True North?
•Related to company culture
•Assets, know-how, strengths
•Customers you serve (or want to serve)
•Market, trends, developments
•What words describe you? Your business?
Where to Start?
What is our mission?
Who are we?
What do we do? What makes us special?
Where are we? Where are we going?
13
Vision Statements (ex.)
To make people happy
To preserve and improve human life.
No child in our city will go hungry to bed in the evening.
We will be the easiest pharmacy retailer for customers to use.
To constantly improve what is essential to human progress by mastering science and technology.
To be the number 1 athletic company in the world
Undisputed marketplace leadership.
To make the world’s information universally accessible and useful.

True North to Strategy
15
• Focus
• 3,4,5 things to be focused on
• What are the boulders
• Alignment
• Think if you can put all your guns in the same direction
• Quick response
• All business environments change, company activities
must be nimble
Value Streams (Focus Areas)
16
• What value streams exist in your business?
• How do we translate the true north to each of these value streams?
• How does the business processes support the value streams?
• How do we simplify the strategy of each value stream?
True North and A3 Thinking

Summarizing the strategy on one piece of paper.
What are my goals? How will I measure myself?
What did we do last year? What went right? What went wrong?
What is this year's strategy?
What's the plan?
What could go wrong? Any worries?
18
• What strategic objectives do we need to achieve this
year?
• How did we do last year?
• What‘s our history?
• What did we do last year?
• What worked and didn‘t work?
• What have we learned?
• What do we need to do to achieve this year‘s strategic
objective?
• How will these actions benefit us?
• What‘s our action plan to achieve these objectives
(who, what, when, where, and how)?
• __________________________
• __________________________

• Are there any unresolved issues?
• Do you need any help with anything?
• Anything bothering you?
Strategy A3
The point is not the piece of paper. The point is……
Make the strategy simple
Focus on the important few
Tell a compelling story
PDCA
Make the review process simple and obvious

why?
๏ Kanban it’s an amazing simple management tool reinforcing transparency.Transparency is a key factor of
agility.
๏ D.Reinersten’s explains that Product Development is a flow and you need to focus on alignment, flow,
feedback loops ,measure cost-of-delay, give place for variability.
๏ Beyond Budgeting explains how to link management processes with leadership action i.e.operations
with strategy.
๏ Agile needs an answer to enabling agility in existing global organizations.
so what?
Now if you use the simple « process » of Hoshin Kanri: True North, A3 Thinking, Catchball and Kaizen (i.e. Continuous Improvement) to support the implementation of Beyond Budgeting
principles and you neither scandinavian nor japanese (culture plays a lot!), and you want to have enough diversity (i.e. variability) to support emerging innovation, then I guess we don’t need to
reinvent something new. We just need to inspect-and-adapt the tools we got.

    why? ๏ Kanban it’san amazing simple management tool reinforcing transparency.Transparency is a key factor of agility. ๏ D.Reinersten’s explains that Product Development is a flow and you need to focus on alignment, flow, feedback loops ,measure cost-of-delay, give place for variability. ๏ Beyond Budgeting explains how to link management processes with leadership action i.e.operations with strategy. ๏ Agile needs an answer to enabling agility in existing global organizations.

    so what? Now ifyou use the simple « process » of Hoshin Kanri: True North, A3 Thinking, Catchball and Kaizen (i.e. Continuous Improvement) to support the implementation of Beyond Budgeting principles and you neither scandinavian nor japanese (culture plays a lot!), and you want to have enough diversity (i.e. variability) to support emerging innovation, then I guess we don’t need to reinvent something new. We just need to inspect-and-adapt the tools we got.
