Getting Lean for Business & Body…
Getting lean for business is like getting lean in body shape. It is about aiming for a vision of where you want to be in physical shape as a vision and goal, understanding where you are now and overcoming the challenges and obstacles to get there. It may require a new training regime, work out methods, a better diet to lose body fat as well as exercises to increase muscle growth…but like meeting any goal, it requires commitment, discipline, determination and perseverance to achieve it and sustain it…

Business is like a Sport – We play to win!
High Performance cyclists perform as a team. They have goals, a strategy, a plan and they measure and track their performance to meet those goals. They define what they want to achieve, they measure every part of their process, especially the performance output of the cyclist, and analyse this data as a scientific experiment to optimise the inputs to improve the output for the most efficient and effective bike set up combination with the power, strength and endurance of the cyclist. This is how we aim to look at your business to make work easier , simpler and better…

High Performance
Like a high Performance athlete, sometimes it is more than just talent or technique that is required to be successful. It is the ability to overcome problems, deal with obstacles and remain positive and focused on the goal in the face of adversity and struggle. Having the perseverance, dedication and commitment to keep going when times are tough and the staying power to pick yourself up is what truly separates the good from the great. This is all about what is in the mind and we help with both mind, technique as well as approach for improving your performance…how are you Performing? .

Quality Processes
A great process is one that is ‘Precise’ and ‘accurate’ or centred and within a small spread. This represents small variation and minimal errors. In six sigma terms this would be a repeatable, consistent, standardised and optimised process. This is a key goal and is measured by the output but controlled by the inputs from the variables. Problem solving the input causes is essential to process excellence and we help you to achieve this to reduce waste, time and money…how are your processes?

Are you trained in the Martial Arts of Business?
Karate is a self defence practice based on martial arts. It requires years of training, practice and mastery to become a black belt. It is not a training course but the process of learning self discipline, commitment, and dedication towards a goal. It makes the body strong, in flow, and is a spiritual journey of self discovery and improvement. Getting Lean is also a way of life. It is a practice and lifestyle, not a trend or fad and like Karate, improving business performance requires a coach or sensei to nurture skills, guide and ensure you are ready for next level of advanced training…are you ready or need help?

Visual Management
The power of Visual Management is the ability to ‘See at a glance’ the status, problems and deviations from standard to be able to respond quickly and adjust accordingly. Whether this is a visual metric, a visual standard or information, creating this visibility and transparency is the goal to monitor and control the key parts of your business to help everyone see it and empower others to identify and fix. The quicker problems are seen, the quicker a countermeasure can be found to reduce waste and make improvements. How is your Visual Management?

How do you measure your Performance?
High Performance is knowing the score and status v the goal or target. Getting immediate feedback on performance helps to make adjustments real time and make improvements. Creating Visual management of performance helps to see at a glance the status against the standard and to see problems quickly and provides clarity on where to focus. Lean Sigma helps to design this into the daily process of reviewing performance and being able to quickly prioritise issues and solve them as a team…what do you do?

Team Work
Basketball is a team sport, like business. Working together to win the game. Using the right strategy combined with skill, agility, tactics and a game plan. Reviewing this frequently and changing the play as required to get the results. People are empowered to use their skills and guided, encouraged and supported by the leader / coach, which is similar to the inverted triangle concept in business…how are you teams working together?

The Power of Visioning
Without a Vision, Strategy or Plan, any direction will do. Without a destination or goal, how can we expect others to consciously direct themselves towards achieving it…Fail to plan, plan to fail…we specialise in developing and deploying a compelling vision, helping to communicate it to the business, and align everyone to the vision and goals so everyone knows how they contribute…do you have a shared, compelling vision and goals?.

Lessons from Sport
Like Business, Golf requires a long term and a short term game. A long term vision and strategy but tactical short term steps to get there. Use different clubs for different situations like improving a process may require many different tools to identify problems. It’s not a one size fits all. A great golfer has a caddie and coach to help him/her create the edge on local courses and it’s the 1% change that can make the difference in results in Sport and Business…how is your edge for competitive advantage?
