Download or read book Erfolgsformel Lean written by Marc Helmold and published by Carl Hanser Verlag GmbH Co KG. This book was released on 2023-10-09 with total page 161 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Lean – die dauerhafte Erfolgsformel! Kaizen und Kata sind etablierte Konzepte, die schon viele Unternehmen an die Spitze geführt haben. Kaizen kann übersetzt werden als das ständige Streben zum Besseren, Kata sind verinnerliche Routinen, die zu der im Lean Management notwendigen Geisteshaltung führen. Nach wie vor sind beide Konzepte hoch aktuell und extrem wertschöpfend! Doch traditionelle Lean Management-Ansätze sind nach innen gerichtet, das Umfeld spielt eine eher untergeordnete Rolle. Das wird der zunehmenden globalen Vernetzung in Zeiten steigender Digitalisierung und notwendiger Flexibilisierung jedoch nicht mehr gerecht. Unternehmen müssen nach außen offen sein, Kooperationen eingehen, ein stabiles Netzwerk aufbauen. Dieses Praktikerwerk kombiniert nun Kaizen und Kata mit Kereitsu. Kereitsu ist eine japanische Methode, die auf Kooperationen mit externen Partnern setzt. Schritt für Schritt wird gezeigt, wie sich diese Konzepte in der Praxis umsetzen lassen, was dabei die Erfolgskriterien sind, aber auch wo sich Hürden verbergen. - Bringt frischen Wind ins Lean Management - Schafft die Basis, um jede Transformation zu meistern - Mit konkreter Umsetzungsanleitung - Viele Beispiele und praktische Tipps - Mit Arbeitshilfen zum Download

The author provides both the advanced thought leadership and detailed implementation guidance for a higher order, enterprise-wide process of adaptive systematic improvement while integrating new Lean principles about leadership, evolving technology, innovation, transactional processes, and behavioral alignment and cultural development to create the right improvement kata thinking throughout any organization and in any country. The author provides an excellent perspective on the current state of Lean with its focus on manufacturing tools and principles, and leads the reader through the rethinking, understanding, and integrating of all of the visible and invisible requirements for a successful adaptive systematic and sustainable management process of improvement. The Lean Business System Reference ModelTM provides an innovative guide for organizations to advance Lean thinking and execution far beyond the production floor, and to a new level that enables the reinvention of global supply chains, new product development, cash-to-cash, acquisition integration, and other core business processes in a highly complex and technology-enabled enterprise.

Download or read book Lean Management Explained written by Can Akdeniz and published by Can Akdeniz. This book was released on with total page 46 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Implementing a lean business philosophy can transform an organization, bringing with it huge benefits in terms of reduced operating costs, decreased lead times, and increased customer satisfaction, along with a marked improvement in employee morale, customer loyalty, and quality of products and services. The lean business model – while originally developed within the US and Japanese automotive manufacturing industries – has proven its worth time and again in every field imaginable – from retail and manufacture to central government administration. The right management is crucial for lean companies. As we shall see, lean is not just a set of tools that can be applied to any situation to reap rewards. Lean management involves taking a holistic approach to developing a specific culture throughout an organization – and a lean business culture can only be achieved if everyone buys in. A lean manager must, guide, coach and inspire – but beyond this they must be open and ready to learn on every step of their journey of continuous improvement. This book will explore in more detail the specific role played by management in lean companies, before delving into the lean toolkit to show you what resources are available and how to get the most from them.
Download or read book The Sensei Way at Work written by Dan Prock and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2021-10-12 with total page 166 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Sensei Way at Work follows in the wake of dozens of successful business books on the Toyota production system, lean enterprise, and the Toyota Way, yet it is unique. It identifies the five keys that sustain successful lean production in Western enterprises—a challenge that has stymied business leaders, managers, and lean coaches for decades. The first reason for our frequent inability to sustain the initial gains of lean startups is a misunderstanding of the Japanese term "kaizen mind." Many mistranslate it as a "hunger" for business efficiency and cost reduction. In fact, kaizen mind is a psychology of "mindfulness" joined with "creativity." And once evoked by a sensei, it can be applied (without training) when a leader mandates that employees and managers solve quality problems and redesign the work together. The second reason is our need to develop new change leaders who know "the way." A sensei immerses prospects in a series of challenges until they learn to do the work of change with the mind of a leader, that is, from the states of presence, flow, and compassion. Lasting organizational transformation becomes possible, even inevitable, when its leaders learn the five keys and realize "one big thing" in the Sensei Way.
Download or read book Kaizen Planning Implementing and Controlling written by Jorge Luis García-Alcaraz and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-10-27 with total page 330 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book reports a literature review on kaizen, its industrial applications, critical success factors, benefits gained, journals that publish about it, main authors (research groups) and universities. Kaizen is treated in this book in three stages: planning, implementation and control. The authors provide a questionnaire designed with activities in every stage, highlighting the benefits gained in each stage. The study has been applied to more than 400 managers and leaders in continuous improvement in Mexican maquiladoras. A univariate analysis is provided to the activities in every stage. Moreover, structural equation models associating those activities with the benefits gained are presented for a statistical validation. Such a relationship between activities and benefits helps managers to identify the most important factor affecting their benefits and financial income.
