Summary of Phase 5 Principles

Phase 5 Principles Overview

Structure Your Thinking

One of the goals of Lean, a type of continuous improvement, is to create flow, where work moves start to finish without stopping.

Focus on Flow

"Without standards, there can be no improvement." This quote by a famous Lean thinker summarizes the purpose of this principle.

WORDS OF WARNING

Create Standards

Compartmentalized leadership isn't effective in a company that truly embraces continuous improvement. Thinking in terms of value streams lets you look for global optima rather than just local improvements.

Manage Your Value Stream

In many companies, employees are told what to do, and they can't question it. That is not the case in a company that embraces a continuous improvement culture.

Improving Your Job is Part of Your Job
