The customer/service user challenge: They don’t have time………….they say things like:

Solve my problem, completely.
Don't waste my time or cause me hassle.
Minimise the cost of doing business with you.
Provide exactly what I need and deliver value where I need it.
Reduce the number of decisions I must make to resolve my problems.
Don’t get me to help you, I want you to help me!

Interpretation by Stephen Parry to combine Consumption and Production Cycles Originally described by Womack and Jones: Lean Solutions

Specify value from the
standpoint of the end customer.
Identify all the steps in
the value stream eliminating
every step and every action
and every practice that
does not create value

Maximise Value

Maximise
Make value-creating steps occur in a
Value
tight and integrated sequence so the
product/service will flow smoothly
toward the customer

Minimise

Tee Value Stream: Optimising the provision of service for service users

©Copyright 2013
2012

Let customers pull value
from the next upstream activity.
Pursue Perfection. These steps lead
to greater transparency, enabling
teams to eliminate further waste
Lets teach them the tools and methods to
become Lean
It’s our perspective and work climate that needs
to change to become Lean
From first to last, Respect for People and a Blame Free Culture.
Extracts from a broadcast by Stephen Parry

We believe people are capable of learning and taking on additional
responsibility, and if you create the right environment, people will
want to learn and will actively seek more responsibility.
In this context, ‘respect for people’ means
understanding that all people have the ability
to learn and the right to be given
opportunities to learn.
There is a world of difference
between helping people to see
and telling them they are
blind.
Most of all we must trust that
people are capable of owning
and solving their own problems
with a little bit of help.

Managers helping employees
freely choose how they solve
problems displays total
respect.

Leadership
The Work Climate is the combined
perception of customers, employees,
managers and leaders. It predicts the
performance and long term
profitability of an organisation.
We use a Climate diagnostic called
Climetrics® which also measures how
well the organisation as a whole,
identifies, understands and delivers
against customer needs and how it
adapts and locks on to changing
customer needs.
The diagnostic informs indicates what
actions we need to take to create a
superior work climate.

    From first tolast, Respect for People and a Blame Free Culture. Extracts from a broadcast by Stephen Parry We believe people are capable of learning and taking on additional responsibility, and if you create the right environment, people will want to learn and will actively seek more responsibility. In this context, ‘respect for people’ means understanding that all people have the ability to learn and the right to be given opportunities to learn. There is a world of difference between helping people to see and telling them they are blind. Most of all we must trust that people are capable of owning and solving their own problems with a little bit of help. Managers helping employees freely choose how they solve problems displays total respect.
