LEAN Management
![](https://ralfmueller-industryconsulting.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/03/LeanPrinciples_Zeichenflaeche-1-04-1024x989.png)
The core idea of LEAN is to “create value without waste”.
All activities that are necessary for the creation of value are to be optimally coordinated and unnecessary activities – waste – are to be avoided.
Customer orientation, process reliability, flow principle, avoiding waste, zero defects and a continuous improvement process are the principles for the improvement of the competitiveness of the value creation processes.
I am happy to support you in the introduction and implementation of LEAN.
A deep understanding of “lean thinking” is the fundamental precondition for a sustainable application of the LEAN principles. In training courses and workshops I can communicate/teach these basics to your management and employees.
Subsequently, basic knowledge of methods and tools should be trained (PDCA, Kaizen, 6S, 8V, VSA/VSD, Kanban etc.).
When planning the implementation of LEAN, the strategy of a selective introduction in a suitable “pilot department” and the subsequent “roll out” to the entire company has proved to work very successful.
LEAN is not to be understood as a project but as a corporate philosophy.
Not until a “continuous improvement process” has been implemented, LEAN is brought to life.
The active involvement of your employees in the LEAN activities and improvement processes plays a key role in the successful implementation of LEAN.
BTW…… “Lean Management” and “Agile Transformation” complement each other very well in practice.
Lean brings tangible improvements in value-adding processes, while agile methods improve efficiency and effectiveness in operational teamwork.
