Driving Strategic Alignment with the Lean Management SystemNovember 19, 2025 •4:00 PM UTC
Driving change is one thing. Sustaining it is another.
As continuous improvement leaders, we've all seen projects deliver real results, only to watch those gains fade months later. The solution isn't more effort or better projects—it's a system to support and sustain them.
A Lean Management System provides that support and structure. Built on four interconnected elements—strategy, problem-solving, daily management, and people—it creates the conditions for improvement to stick. In this webinar, you'll learn how these elements connect long-term goals to daily work, create accountability for progress, and build the habits that keep improvements from slipping away.
What You’ll Learn:
- The four elements of a Lean Management System and how they support sustainable improvement
- How to ensure alignment across all levels with key metrics that cascade from strategic objectives to the daily management system
- How connecting value streams across the enterprise helps break down silos and address systemic issues
- Ways traditional Lean methods can be combined with emerging AI opportunities to enhance results
- Daily management routines that reinforce accountability and performance at every level
- Why the People System—Go See, Ask Why, Show Respect—provides the foundation that makes every other system sustainable
