Learning Goals
• Understand that a lean leader’s primary job is align the
organization
• Understand the four lean leadership practices necessary
to achieve long term business results
• Be able to describe the “ascension paradox” of the lean
operating system
• Review a 3 year journey to decrease preventable harm
in one hospital

• Patient is customer • Patient is the product—complex mixed product lines • Secondary “products” are trainees • Emotional connection required • Medical/Nursing training teaches disease management not process
management • Deeper than usual silos in an academic hospital; disconnected
reporting structures • Unusually powerful position of MDs, outside of management
hierarchies • The mindset that MDs are the internal customers of many processes • Conservative, evidence-based nature of attitude to change • Truly 24/7 nature of a hospital
Healthcare “challenges”
![Page 4: Lean Leadership Practices to Achieve Business Results · Reliable Method/ Standardized Work A documented procedure (i.e. how to) with sequence, supplies and quality toll gates, owned](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051807/60066101b2e9f220dd02f01b/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
Why Lean?
Clinical Outcomes
*Experience of Care
Cost
Value
Healthcare reform and consumers demanding: Cheaper, faster, better, safer, kinder for individuals and populations
*Patient and Staff Experience
![Page 5: Lean Leadership Practices to Achieve Business Results · Reliable Method/ Standardized Work A documented procedure (i.e. how to) with sequence, supplies and quality toll gates, owned](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051807/60066101b2e9f220dd02f01b/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
QCDSE = Business Results or
Enterprise “True North” metrics
Q -- Quality
C -- Cost
D -- Delivery (Access)
S -- Safety
E -- Engagement/Experience (Patient & Staff)

Frontline feedback that can be addressed
with lean leadership practices
• “I don’t ever see the senior leadership team members”
• “Senior leadership doesn’t understand our issues”
• “We are being asked to change and we don’t know how”
• “I am overwhelmed by the number of problems we have”
• “We are overwhelmed by the number of “initiatives” to be
worked on”
• “I ask for help and I rarely get it in time”
• “The leadership team is always in meetings”
• “Leadership says they are supportive but I don’t see
evidence of it except they are supporting all of these high
priced consultants”

Using standards as problem
solving tools Make issues (abnormalities) visible by implementing
standards and measuring the actual output against the
expected output
Then do PDCA to solve the issues at their root (in
contrast to quick countermeasures) so that they don’t
continue to reduce efficiency
This approach requires leaders to be very tenacious
about continuously applying the PDCA cycle

A Daily Management System
Sustains the Improvements
![Page 22: Lean Leadership Practices to Achieve Business Results · Reliable Method/ Standardized Work A documented procedure (i.e. how to) with sequence, supplies and quality toll gates, owned](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051807/60066101b2e9f220dd02f01b/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Components of Daily Management DMS Principle Definition
Reliable Method/
Standardized Work
A documented procedure (i.e. how to) with sequence, supplies and quality toll gates,
owned by a named individual, used by everyone. When the element of time is added, it
is deemed Standardized Work.
Reliable Method or Standard
Work Audit/Check
A structured check of the process to ensure Reliable Method is followed
Abnormality & Andon A system to immediately notify appropriate management, maintenance, providers and
other team members of a safety, quality, process or problem requiring a
countermeasure. May involve abruptly stopping a process.
Problem Solving:
Improvement Ideas (STPs)
Continuous improvement process generated and implemented by the frontline, with
assistance and coaching from leadership. STP = Situation, Target, Proposal.
Visual Management A strategy for creating, supporting, and sustaining process stability through the use of
visual cues.
Tiered Huddles Brief, structured, stand-up meetings used to review area readiness and identify
problems.
Andon Response A tiered system to immediately respond to an andon. Involves team leads and a variety
of managers. Quick countermeasure and root cause problem solving required
Leader Standardized Work:
Responsibilities for Leaders
A working document (checklist) for leaders specifying the actions to be taken each day
to focus on the processes in that leader’s area of responsibility.
Leader Gemba Walk Each level leader above the work unit routinely observes the workplace with the
department leader/student for the purpose of supporting the work processes

Leadership Practice Three:
Develop Self
![Page 24: Lean Leadership Practices to Achieve Business Results · Reliable Method/ Standardized Work A documented procedure (i.e. how to) with sequence, supplies and quality toll gates, owned](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051807/60066101b2e9f220dd02f01b/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Servant Leadership Practices • Communicate vision: what is ideal future state, create
dissatisfaction with current state
Appeal to head (intellect) and heart (emotions)
• Walk the Talk—go see reality at least once a week
• Humble inquiry
• Listen more than talk
• Engage the frontline workers: What is getting in your way
of doing your job?
• Review metrics with area management
• Foster value stream thinking: build span of support
versus span of control (authority v responsibility)
• Celebrate the wins
![Page 25: Lean Leadership Practices to Achieve Business Results · Reliable Method/ Standardized Work A documented procedure (i.e. how to) with sequence, supplies and quality toll gates, owned](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051807/60066101b2e9f220dd02f01b/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Leader Standardized Work
• Calendar gemba time: used for time with direct reports
and observing the real work in the hospital/clinic. No
cross-functional meetings
• Debrief gemba walks at team meetings
• Attend weekly improvement report outs
• Attend daily Ops huddle
• Sponsor improvement event
• Participate improvement event
• Construct and own an A3
• Complete STPs (Situation, Target, Proposal)
![Page 26: Lean Leadership Practices to Achieve Business Results · Reliable Method/ Standardized Work A documented procedure (i.e. how to) with sequence, supplies and quality toll gates, owned](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051807/60066101b2e9f220dd02f01b/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
Traditional Management Lean Management
Focus on outcome (“get results”) Focus on standardized processes that get the desired
outcome
Attaining goals trumps all else Developing people has equal weight to goal attainment
Manage to industry benchmarks Manage to customer requirements
Metrics visible to few Metrics visible to all
Batch and retrospectively review results Real time and prospective view of data/results
Management tells staff what to do
Management questions, challenges, coaches and offers
help to staff
Manage from office Manage in gemba
Problems are bad Problems are treasures
Who produced the error?
What suboptimal work process(es) or system produced
error
Autocratic, top-down problem solving
Guided, distributed, participative problem solving
Autocratic, top-down goal creation Guided, distributed, participative goal creation
Organizational success attained by time-intensive
analysis and design of “perfect fix”
Success through continuous, rapid, small, incremental
improvements

Leadership Practice Four:
Develop Others
![Page 28: Lean Leadership Practices to Achieve Business Results · Reliable Method/ Standardized Work A documented procedure (i.e. how to) with sequence, supplies and quality toll gates, owned](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051807/60066101b2e9f220dd02f01b/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
Creating a strong air campaign
1. Pit the vision of where you want to be against the reality
of the current state to the organization
2. Educate and engage the workforce through:
1. Point improvements
2. Lean pedagogy
3. End of week improvement report outs
4. Plethora of varied communication methods
5. Lean learning trips and networking
![Page 29: Lean Leadership Practices to Achieve Business Results · Reliable Method/ Standardized Work A documented procedure (i.e. how to) with sequence, supplies and quality toll gates, owned](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051807/60066101b2e9f220dd02f01b/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
Create a strong ground
campaign 1. 3 Actuals Walk
2. Make good practices easier to do
-Calendar gemba time, improvement time
3. Make bad practices harder to do
-Decrease meeting times, emails, outside interferences,
etc…
4. Reduce the choices of what to work on
“A” items, “B” items, “C” items
5. Make losers whole
6. Emphasize succession planning and leader development
![Page 30: Lean Leadership Practices to Achieve Business Results · Reliable Method/ Standardized Work A documented procedure (i.e. how to) with sequence, supplies and quality toll gates, owned](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051807/60066101b2e9f220dd02f01b/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
Gemba Coaching Kata
Questions (Mike Rother, Toyota Kata)
1. What is the target condition?
2. What is the current condition?
3. What obstacles are preventing you from reaching
the target condition?
4. Which one are you working on now?
5. What is your next step?
6. When can we go and see what we have learned
from taking that step?
Key concept: Coaching = asking, not telling
![Page 31: Lean Leadership Practices to Achieve Business Results · Reliable Method/ Standardized Work A documented procedure (i.e. how to) with sequence, supplies and quality toll gates, owned](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051807/60066101b2e9f220dd02f01b/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
Ascension Paradox of the
Lean Operating System • Want to get to Level 5 as quickly as possible (biggest
cost down and quality increases)
• Latent problem: real work is at foundational level 1
(alignment/understanding)
• Level 1, if done correctly, takes time, patience, learning
to “walk” again, and is difficult
• No real QCDSE gain at during level 1 work
![Page 32: Lean Leadership Practices to Achieve Business Results · Reliable Method/ Standardized Work A documented procedure (i.e. how to) with sequence, supplies and quality toll gates, owned](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051807/60066101b2e9f220dd02f01b/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)

How do we go faster?
The role of leaders • Alignment, alignment, alignment
• Link to strategic/ops plan: “What do we have to do?”
• Decommission work!
• Develop improvement capability in ops (not just PI team)
• Management system: tenacity
• Value stream management: adjudicate responsibility v
authority tensions
• Make the big decisions

Example of Faster:
Periop Work Group On July 31st 2015, the 3:15 Periop Scheduling Meeting ran for over 1 hour, due to
sorting and accommodating bed requests for following day of surgery. Consensus was
that another meeting needed to be scheduled earlier to confirm, organize, and
accommodate all OR bed requests. Following the initiation of this daily huddle, a
Periop Work Group formed to create a solution to manage the OR schedule further in
advance in order to decreasing delays and cancellations, overburdening staff, and
going through extraordinary measures to accommodate our scheduled cases.

A Business Problem • We averaged over 3 serious safety events per month
• Most are preventable
![Page 37: Lean Leadership Practices to Achieve Business Results · Reliable Method/ Standardized Work A documented procedure (i.e. how to) with sequence, supplies and quality toll gates, owned](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051807/60066101b2e9f220dd02f01b/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)
Leaders’ Actions to Decrease SSEs
• Align organization around the problem: “Do we agree?”
• Deploy as an annual goal for all work areas
• Deprioritize work
• Support roll out of standardized processes, waste
elimination, blend into our management system, PDCA
