In an organisation, people often behave according to what the leader truly values rather than what is said.<\/p>\n

A manager<\/p>\n

\u201cIncrease production.\u201d<\/p>\n

may say.<\/p>\n

A good leader asks:<\/p>\n

\u201cHow can we deliver value to the customer faster, with better quality and less waste?\u201d<\/p>\n

The difference may seem small.<\/p>\n

But the results are very different.<\/p>\n

Leadership is more than setting targets.<\/p>\n

Leadership means<\/p>\n

setting the right priorities,
bringing people together around a shared purpose, making problems visible, taking difficult decisions
and standing behind change.<\/p>\n

I see this particularly clearly in lean transformation.<\/p>\n

Implementing 5S is not difficult<\/p>\n

Establishing Kanban is not difficult<\/p>\n

Preparing standardised work is not difficult<\/p>\n

Designing flow can also be learned<\/p>\n

What is difficult is changing habits that have persisted for years.<\/p>\n

And this is where leadership begins.<\/p>\n

A leader\u2019s commitment is an important condition for sustaining change. Adequate resources, clear standards, appropriate workload, training and consistent incentives are also needed.<\/p>\n

For me, one of the strongest definitions of leadership is:<\/p>\n

Leadership is creating an environment where people will do the right thing even when you are not there.<\/p>\n

Perhaps even more importantly:<\/p>\n

A factory\u2019s culture is shaped by what its leaders allow every day.<\/p>\n

Do you believe your company needs transformation under its current conditions?<\/p>\n

In your view, what matters most to the success of a transformation?<\/p>\n

How can we develop both the leadership that establishes and sustains a good system and the conditions that enable employees to contribute?<\/p>\n
