---Management Development ---
Below are not my words… they’re the words of Mike Myatt in an article published in Forbes.com. Mike is recognized by Thinkers50 as one of the preeminent management thinkers globally, he is a management advisor to Fortune 500 CEOs and Boards and a Senior Fellow at the Gordian Institute. He is widely regarded as America's Top CEO Coach.
”Most management development programs don’t even come
close to accomplishing what they were designed to do –
build better leaders.”
”While training is often accepted as productive, it rarely is.
The terms training and development have somehow become
synonymous when they are clearly not.”
”Don’t train leaders, coach them, mentor them, disciple
them, and develop them, but please don’t attempt to
train them.”
”Training is something leaders dread and will try to avoid,
whereas they will embrace and look forward to development.
Development is nuanced, contextual, collaborative, fluid, and
above all else, actionable.”
Such writings inspired me to create a management development program with one-on-one e-Coaching that marries Mr. Myatt's management development philosophy with my lean manufacturing knowledge and "make-it-happen" skills.
Knowledge and skills developed during a successful 35 year manu-facturing career that included three successful lean manufacturing success stories. The result was the creation of my:

My 10 Basics of Lean Manufacturing
e-Tutorial No. 1: Strategic Planning & Tactical Execution -
Strategic planning is a business process that many companies employ to identify their critical success targets that set the course for future growth and profits. Manufacturing participation in the process is crucial to assure support of company strategic objective.
e-Tutorial No. 2: Information Integrity - MRPII/ERP expectations will not be achieved when day-to-day production and manufacturing/ supply chain control systems are driven by inaccurate, untimely and uncontrolled data and/or documentation.
e-Tutorial No. 3: Performance Management - Financial numbers may tell us who's winning the war, but it takes a motivational performance/balanced scorecard measurement system to win all the battles along the way. Remember, without data lean champions are just another opinion.
e-Tutorial No. 4: Value Stream Mapping - Analysis of the processes which the maps represent help you increase customer satisfaction by identifying actions to reduce process cycle time, decrease defects, reduce costs, establish customer-driven process performance measures, reduce non-value-added steps, and increase productivity are a few.
e-Tutorial No. 5: Kaizen Management - If your business team can handle only one strategic initiative at a time, then let it be the implementation of a “quick-hitting” kaizen program. There just isn’t any other more important manufacturing program in our pursuit of profits.
e-Tutorial No. 6: Sequential Production and Team Dynamics- Effective shop floor control has proven elusive as we have upgraded our manufacturing control system from MRP to MRPII and then to ERP. To capture control of shop floor activities, we need to stop beating a “dead horse” and implement the Sequential Production Process and Team Dynamics. The winners are!.
e-Tutorial No. 7: Point-of-Use Supply Chain Management -Companies will never achieve their lean manufacturing expectations as long as business leaders continue to talk about value-added supplier partnerships, while continuing to deal with their suppliers as adversaries. And, the elimination of the stockroom (a high non-value added contributor), as we know it today, should be high priority on the "to do" list..
e-Tutorial No. 8: Cycle Time Management - If your manufacturing team can handle only one kaizen project at a time, then let it be the reduction of total build/test cycle time. There just isn’t any other more important control factor in our pursuit of cost reduction and customer satisfaction.
e-Tutorial No. 9: Sequential and Linear Production -
Companies will never achieve their full growth and profit potential if they produce more than 25% of their monthly shipment plan in the last week of the month or more than 33% of their quarterly shipment plan in the last month of the quarter. As companies struggle to remain competitive, one of the strategies by which gains in speed, quality and costs can be achieved is to implement and optimize sequential and linear production processes.e-Tutorial No. 10: Self-directed Work Team Development - A primary reason why many lean transformations have not delivered results to expectations is lack of effective leadership. Success transformation has come to many companies that have trained and empowered self-directed work teams.

Dear Bill, I am very pleased that I discovered your website so I could take advantage of the Lean Manufacturing Certification program. I was looking for something that provided practical information that I could use immediately and your e-coaching is exactly what I was looking for. Your experience in implementing a lean culture obviously shows as the material contains many examples of how each lean tool was applied. I am very impressed with the breadth of your experiences across a company, from the executive office to the shop floor. Your coaching throughout the certification was very helpful and I am looking forward to keeping in touch and taking advantage of your offer to assist me at any time. Thank you very much.
