Those in a management role tend to have an already established role within the organisation. They have collective experience and have perhaps achieved this level of success within the business by having successfully used the same number of processes in various projects over the years.
If this is the case for managers within an organisation and they are considering Lean Six Sigma for the first time, then they might find that Lean can appear to contradict their preexisting views.
It’s very important during the training sessions to explain the merits of the Lean methodologies. This will require a certain amount of breaking away from more traditional management held roles, giving these back to personnel within the company. Managers in the Lean environment need to be able to trust that their staff are capable of interrogating their own processes and of finding the most appropriate solution.
However, this is not a critique of the role of management. Lean simply allows for the refinement of processes to take place by the people who are in a position to execute change. It can also be beneficial to provide a specific understanding of the overall cultural benefits of Lean Six Sigma with your managers. It is important that they understand that they will have additional responsibilities relating to the deployment of Lean within the business. Skills such as mentorship will be vital and we will ask your managers to focus on this, with guidance from our expert trainers.
While the approach of managers to Lean Six Sigma is quite different, these differences are very important and we will assist you in developing a strategy and materials for your managers and executive teams.
