A company that has committed to a lean transformation also has committed to working toward long-term growth and success. This requires planning for the future as well as creating operational excellence today. Although many companies understand the need for planning, doing so is perceived as much more difficult than dealing with the day-to-day operational improvements, and so often planning goes undone or poorly done. And yet, if a company wants to truly transform, its management team must learn to plan for the future. A lean company does this planning through policy deployment.
No organization can afford to waste energy and resources on efforts that do not support its objectives. You can use policy deployment to build consensus on a few critical things that will generate growth and long-term success.
Policy deployment is an integral part of the senior management leadership process that lies at the center of an organization’s lean transformation.
