How to

Sell Lean
to Managers
www.journey-to-better.com
I have found the best
approach is…

www.journey-to-better.com
Don’t
www.journey-to-better.com
Lean is…

www.journey-to-better.com
Counter intuitive

www.journey-to-better.com
ill defined

www.journey-to-better.com
tough
to sell

www.journey-to-better.com
Instead of trying
to sell the idea of Lean

www.journey-to-better.com
Find out
what
outcome
they would
like to
increase?
www.journey-to-better.com
Efficiency

www.journey-to-better.com
Speed

www.journey-to-better.com
Quality

www.journey-to-better.com
Innovation

www.journey-to-better.com
Morale

www.journey-to-better.com
Reliability

www.journey-to-better.com
Outcomes

Efficiency
Speed
Quality
Innovation
Morale
Reliability
www.journey-to-better.com
Sell the idea of improving
an Outcome

www.journey-to-better.com
Don’t talk about Lean

www.journey-to-better.com
Talk about getting better

www.journey-to-better.com
To get
results

www.journey-to-better.com
Measure a
Predictor

www.journey-to-better.com
Predictors
affect the
desired
outcome
www.journey-to-better.com
But are hard to cheat

www.journey-to-better.com
Measure Predictors
to reach the target
Outcome
www.journey-to-better.com
An example…

www.journey-to-better.com
To increase
Speed, measure WIP.

www.journey-to-better.com
High WIP

www.journey-to-better.com
Low Speed
Cycle Time

www.journey-to-better.com
Lowering
WIP

www.journey-to-better.com
Increases
Speed
Cycle Time

www.journey-to-better.com
Lean
Thinking is a
powerful
tool
www.journey-to-better.com
But no one cares,
how you…

www.journey-to-better.com
cut down the tree
www.journey-to-better.com
Keep Lean
in your
toolkit, but
don’t try to
sell it
others.
www.journey-to-better.com
