Over the 16 years that we've been providing support to organizations at nearly every stage of the Lean journey, leadership has consistently emerged as the single most important determinant of success. Those organizations with deep leadership engagement soar, while those who don't fail to experience significant transformation.
In this first of three webinars, Karen shares the perspective and content that she and her team use when working with executives and senior leadership teams within the firm's clients.
She review the system of Lean principles, management practices, and tools, and then focuses on 6 of the topics leaders most commonly misunderstand or are unaware of:
1. Three of the core values that underlie Lean management
2. Key performance indicators
3. Visual management
4. Work standardization
5. Go and see (Gemba) management
6. The one environmental "don't" that destroys all Lean effort

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.

For decades now, "management" has been synonymous with managing people. Meanwhile, processes, the lifeblood of an organization, remain largely unmanaged. In this webinar, Karen shares her views on why we need to change our thinking and her practical how-to's for making this vital pivot.
Why is it that some companies which try to become agile fail to sustain their early success, while other companies not only grow their agility, but thrive in it?
Most agile adoptions are focused "Outside-In". That is, they start with a process like Scrum or Kanban, and expose the impediments within the organization. However, it is these embedded cultural impediments which often limit agility.
This presentation introduces a counter approach to agile adoption, from the "Inside-out", to align, grow and sustain agility - no matter the culture of your organization. It was first presented at RallyOn 2012 in Boulder, CO.

Effective problem solving is not an innate skill that most people are born with.
Even for those few few lucky ones who are born with natural problem-solving talent, it is often drummed out of them by parents, teachers, and bosses. And those whose academic preparation would lead you to believe that they're highly skilled in this area (such as engineers and physicians) regularly fall prey to sloppy problem solving.
The good news is that effective problem solving is a skill that can be developed. Everyone can learn to solve problems effectively given the will and ample practice with a skilled coach/teacher.
This webinar focuses on the P (plan) phase of the PDSA/PDCA cycle (plan-do-study-adjust), which is the most difficult phase of scientific problem solving for people to master. Topics include:
• Setting a target condition
• Problem clarification
• Scoping and qualifying the problem
• Root cause analysis
Watch this lively discussion and learn the important first steps for closing the gap between where you are and where you'd like or need to be.

She’s learned that addressing the need for clarity head-on is an accelerant.
In this webinar, Karen discusses:
• The personal and organizational benefits of operating with clarity
• The three ways people approach clarity
• How to use Lean Management practices—the 5 P’s—to cultivate clarity
With a strong appetite for and courage to operate with clarity, there's no limit to individual and organizational performance!

A lack of clarity costs companies, educational institutions, government agencies, and nonprofits billions of dollars a year. Beyond the red ink, this lack of clarity also inserts unnecessary risk, demotivates team members, and causes customers to question whether the organization can deliver value.
On a personal front, a lack of clarity creates interpersonal tension and hurts the mission of otherwise well-meaning leaders.
In this webinar, Karen shares what clarity is and how a lack of clarity leads to poor performance--both organizationally and personally--and eroding trust. She shares powerful ways to operate with greater clarity to unleash the potential of people and organizations alike.
To supplement the webinar, consider taking our free quiz to assess how you and your organization currently rate (www.clarityfirstquiz.com) or purchase the book (www.clarityfirstbook.com).

Of all the organizational capabilities to be developed, problem solving takes the top spot. Yet all too often organizations lack a clear and effective method for solving problems that the entire workforce is proficient in.

In the webinar--the 4th of 5 webinars based on content from Karen’s latest book, Clarity First--you learn a question-based problem solving method (CLEAR) that helps people at all levels of the organization become stronger problem solvers. You'll also learn the proper way to build these capabilities at all levels of your organization.
If you haven't taken it already, we recommend you take the Clarity First Quiz to see how you and your organization rate (www.clarityfirstquiz.com). You may also be interested in purchasing the book to obtain a deeper understanding that can lead to deeper understanding - www.clarityfirstbook.com.

Operating with clear processes makes or breaks organizational performance and it's an aspect of operations that is often fairly weak. Measuring organizational performance—whether overall performance or the performance of a small work team—is another area that we find often organizations struggling with.
In this webinar—the 3rd of 5 webinars based on content from my latest book, Clarity First—you'll learn the five criteria for robust process management and best practices for measuring and managing performance at any level in the organization. Additional topics will include creating and using standard work, how to properly roll out process changes, and avoiding measurement that drives the wrong behaviors.

value stream mapping and metrics based process mappingTKMG, Inc.
Since Mike Osterling and I released our latest book, Value Stream Mapping, we've received a lot of questions about which level of mapping--value stream vs. process--people should opt for and why/when. We've also continued to hear people claim that value stream mapping team members should include the front-line staff. Not so.
These are the slides for a webinar delivered on 12-17-2015. The recording is available at:

Why is it that even the most successful lean projects often go unrecognized in the executive suites? The issue may be lack of alignment – the fact that executives don't see a connection between Lean progress and the corporate agenda that they are expected to fulfill.
This webinar will help directors, managers, supervisors, Lean champions, and consultants understand how corporate agendas affect executive attention and decision making, and what this means for Lean projects.
Participants will learn how to cultivate an ear for business developments that concern executives, and to communicate Lean results in a language that will resonate with all senior leaders.
The evidence will be drawn from the author’s new book The Lean CEO (McGraw-Hill), which explains, through in-depth CEO interviews, the circumstances leading to enterprise-wide adoption of lean in 28 organizations.
About the presenter:
Jacob Stoller is a Toronto-based writer and consultant who has helped business leaders tell their stories for the past 15 years. His recent book, The Lean CEO, uses narratives from 28 lean-practicing CEOs to illustrate the true meaning of a lean transformation. A frequent commentator in the business press, Jacob has delivered a variety of learning events in Canada and the US, and authored documents for clients such as Microsoft, Dell Computer, Staples, Pitney Bowes, International Data Corporation (IDC), CMA Canada, and the Conference Board of Canada.

Organizational culture – everybody talks about it, few understand its underlying mechanisms and even fewer know how to truly establish the culture they need to succeed.
A structure that enforces discipline can help you develop necessary habits, but that won't be enough to achieve breakthrough performances and ensure long-term success. That requires establishing an atmosphere where people wholeheartedly engage in their work and are enthusiastic about continuously improving it. This is where culture comes in. Culture is the abstract root cause for why teams with the same training, following the same routine and using the same tools, can produce completely different results.
In this webinar, you'll get a completely new perspective of what organizational culture is and learn how to establish a culture where your entire organization continuously and methodically improves!

All too often people use Lean solely to drive daily incremental improvement (kaizen). What we don't hear as much about is the power of Lean to create substantive business improvement (kaikaku), such as gaining significant market share, growing sales within existing customers, creating disruptive products, increasing cash flow, and growing margins. Margin growth is especially important. Even non-profits need money to reinvest in their operations.
In this webinar, you'll learn how to make improvements that grow your top and bottom lines. You can create better work environments that deeply engage the workforce, while also thrilling your CFO, shareholders, and Board. THIS is what assures that Lean management continues to be taken seriously.
Specifically, you will learn:
• How to calculate the financial impact of your improvement efforts.
• Ways for improving margins (profit) through expense reduction (but not layoffs!).
• Improvements that help grow your top line (revenue/sales).
• How to engage executives in the process.

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.
