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.

Value Stream Mapping is a powerful way to improve performance across a large portion of an enterprise. But, before you dive into mapping, there are significant steps you must take to assure a successful outcome. In this webinar, award-winning author, Karen Martin shares the proper preparation an organization must take to reap the full set of benefits Value Stream Mapping offers.
Topics include:
Leadership – what is their role?
Scoping – how "big” should you go?
Team formation – who are the right people to include?
Facilitator selection – what traits and skills are needed?
Charter development and socialization – it’s far more than a planning tool!
Logistics & communication – how do you make sure everyone is engaged and prepared?
Watch this webinar for a no-nonsense discussion about the key success factors and common failings in preparing to value stream map.
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.
These are the slides for the webinar of the same name, available at www.ksmartin.com/webinars
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.
These are the slides for the webinar https://vimeo.com/507636848
Since releasing her book, Clarity First, Karen has continued to analyze, experiment, and reflect on the strong connection between operating with clarity and successfully deploying Lean management—or any improvement-centric management philosophy. 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!

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

In Lean conversations, we often hear “it’s 10% tools and 90% people,” “we need to change the culture,” and “they just don’t get it.” While each of these statements may be true, they all reflect that something is missing in our problem-solving and transformation attempts—and that missing element is helping people change their behaviors. In reality if we don’t change the way the organization thinks and behaves, on a day-to-day basis, we won’t significantly impact performance levels.
This workshop includes both theory and practical application around the behaviors of excellence: organizational clarity, focus, discipline, and widespread employee engagement. Activities include class discussions and four major activities representing each of the dimensions.
The clarity activity centers on the words we use and how ambiguity and "softened" language hinders performance. The focus activity is a timed simulation that demonstrates how working on fewer projects at a time increases the total number of projects completed in a comparable given time period. Participants learn metrics-based process mapping, a highly disciplined process for standardizing work. In the final activity, participants practice techniques that lead to engagement and disengagement.

Too many organizations today suffer from silo-centric behavior and intra-organizational conflict. Yet most don’t understand what’s holding them back from achieving outstanding performance.
Value Stream Mapping (VSM), popularized in Mike Rother and John Shook’s landmark book Learning to See, is a highly effective method for improving performance across an organization. However, VSM is commonly misunderstood, misapplied and under-utilized. Properly executed, value stream mapping is much more than an operations design tool. It also results in a more engaged and knowledgeable leadership team; surfaces hidden cultural and organizational issues; and aligns values, resources, goals and priorities.
In this webinar, you’ll learn how to
* Use value stream mapping as an organizational transformation tool
* Properly scope and plan for a value stream mapping activity
* Obtain leadership consensus about the future state design
* Create and execute a highly effective Value Stream Transformation Plan

Value Stream Mapping is a powerful, leadership-level improvement activity that looks at how work flows across an organization from a customer request to delivering on that request.
Using a methodical approach to gain insights into current performance and a no-holds barred approach for an improved future state, leaders are able to transform their operations into efficient and effective value delivery systems.
In this webinar, you'll learn the 10 key success factors that Karen and her team have found create the greatest degrees of success in the transformation process.
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:
http://www.slideshare.net/KarenMartinGroup/value-stream-and-process-mapping-when-you-opt-for-each or http://ksmartin.com/webinars.
For more information, we invite you to consider http://bit.ly/VSM-AMZ for VSM and http://bit.ly/MBPM-AMZ for MBPM. (Please note: MBPM is priced high because it includes an extensive Excel tool to document maps and auto-calculate results.)
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 second of three webinars, Karen reviews the system of Lean principles, management practices, and tools, and then focus on leadership's role in strategy deployment and problem solving.

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!
Joakim Ahlström is an internationally recognized expert on establishing continuous improvement cultures and helping organizations achieve excellence in all fronts. Based in Stockholm, Sweden, he’s the author of How to Succeed with Continuous Improvement and the Head of Consulting at C2 Management. Ahlström has helped global companies such as Coca-Cola, Volvo, Ericsson and IKEA achieve long-term improvement in performance by supporting the development of a high-performance continuous improvement culture.

Lean and the Corporate Agenda with Guest Jacob StollerTKMG, Inc.
Recorded Webinar: http://bit.ly/1UBCCUK
Subscribe: http://www.ksmartin.com/subscribe
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.

Confronting resistance to change is a common lament from improvement professionals, middle managers, and senior leaders alike. But organizations that approach improvement properly experience very little resistance to change. This webinar will unlock the keys to resistance-free improvement:
You will learn:
• The power behind properly designed & socialized charters.
• Technique for aligning all stakeholders around the need for change.
• How to assure that a proposed change is truly an improvement.

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.

Showing respect for people is something that most people agree with in theory. But many organizations don't show respect the way it’s meant in Lean management. The result? Poor business performance, difficulty attracting and retaining talent, and customer service that leaves much to be desired.
In this webinar, you will learn:
• Why respect goes far beyond how you interact with someone.
• How work systems & processes create disrespect.
• How blame and disrespect are inextricably linked.
• How robust problem-solving demonstrates respect for people.
• How to use improvement to build a highly respectful culture.
People work far too many hours and give too much to organizations to not receive respect in return. Watch to learn how.

Message from the Professor
Why we are using this method in the advanced internship class
Our internship students are within a semester or two of entering the workforce as managers. FIU’s Hospitality and Tourism Management School has included a structured internship as part of the curriculum for over a decade to assist students with this transition into management. A substantial part of the course has always included a project where the students were to improve the host company’s operations in a meaningful and lasting way.About Lean 6σ
This project is a scaled down Lean 6σ ( six sigma) project designed to be completed within the term of the semester. Lean 6σ is a continuous process improvement method which has grown in use in U.S. and international corporations since the 1970’s. Employed to great success at companies like Motorola, this method aims to refine a company’s existing processes through data based analysis and evidence based decision making.
U.S.-based quality professionals who complete any Six Sigma training earn on average $12,642 more than those without it. 2011 QP Salary Survey*Criteria for the Project
· The project must be based on a real need in the company, and have the support of the student’s supervisor.
· Must be able to be completed to in 10 weeks or (40 hours)

Since releasing her book, Clarity First, Karen has continued to analyze, experiment, and reflect on the strong connection between operating with clarity and successfully deploying Lean management—or any improvement-centric management philosophy. 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.

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.

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.

Cracking the Workplace Discipline Code Main.pptxWorkforce Group
Cultivating and maintaining discipline within teams is a critical differentiator for successful organisations.
Forward-thinking leaders and business managers understand the impact that discipline has on organisational success. A disciplined workforce operates with clarity, focus, and a shared understanding of expectations, ultimately driving better results, optimising productivity, and facilitating seamless collaboration.
Although discipline is not a one-size-fits-all approach, it can help create a work environment that encourages personal growth and accountability rather than solely relying on punitive measures.
In this deck, you will learn the significance of workplace discipline for organisational success. You’ll also learn
• Four (4) workplace discipline methods you should consider
• The best and most practical approach to implementing workplace discipline.
• Three (3) key tips to maintain a disciplined workplace.

Follow Up Actions
Root Cause & Gap Analysis
- Undefined level of service (office parties, special events)
- No defined process for unplanned absences (calling in, redistribute work, etc.)
- Inconsistent availability of communication tools (vary by building)
- No defined process for requesting/responding to emergencies
- Variation in cleaning schedules versus facility operating schedules
- Unpredictable daily staffing
- Travel time + Check in Time = 16.00 hrs/day = 2 FTE
- Customer requested personalized service (newspaper delivery, parties, trash)
