PICS Stream Opening Speech: Lean Agility in different sectors
|
| |
|
Companies need to take actions to overcome the current financial and economic crisis and prepare for better times. The only correct way forward is by becoming more lean and agile simultaneously.
Now is the time to assess your level of lean agility, identify weak points and launch initiatives for becoming more competitive in the future.
The CMI Lean Agility® (Company Mass Index) assessment scheme has shown to be an excellent qualitative management vehicle to identify the way forward. It has been used in a variety of different sectors and business processes.
During this presentation, recent developments and results will be shared.

The Quantification of Lean
|
| |
|
Lean has attracted much attention in industry and is now spreading into services, office environments and non-profit organizations. However, as more organizations apply Lean, the specifications of Lean – what to do and to what extent – become more and more important.
Here we address recent research and application results indicating that Lean programmes can be very quantifiable and can go far beyond the descriptive approaches.

Lean Sun Tzu
|
| |
|
En mettant en place l’approche LEAN SUN TZU, le savoir pourquoi de l’amélioration continue des performances est favorisée par l’analogie de ‘L’art de la guerre’ de Sun Tzu (500 AVC). Cette oeuvre décrit des règles très pertinentes applicables aux stratégies et tactiques des entreprises.
C’est pourquoi nous utilisons cette approche en tant que métaphore pour orienter le ‘pourquoi’ de l’implémentation efficace mais rapide d’un projet d’entreprise Lean.
La pensée Lean (svelte) en tant que ‘créatrice de valeur en éliminant le gaspillage’ est considérée comme ‘le summum’ de la stratégie d’entreprise.
