An excellent LEAN leader on the shopfloor manages to invite people to change and win them over to an attitude of continuous improvement (CIP). Thus, a leader can develop his team significantly if he is aware that people are different and draw on their corresponding repertoire of possible behaviors. Managers in production play not only have a role as opinion leaders and problem
solvers, but also as teachers. Therefore leadership is the basis and
driver of mature processes and the key to a successful LEAN management. Fundamentally, the process of successful LEAN transformation rests on
embedding LEAN into the strategy and the corporate culture.
During this technical workshop participants will get introduced to the benefits of a holistic LEAN Leadership approach and get deeper insights into the relationships and model of shop floor leadership methods, to finally increase their impact as an excellent leader.
