Lean Enterprise Academy
Helping individuals and organisations on their lean journey.
Have you?applied the Lean Transformation Framework questions to your situation? This month (for a bit of fun) I had a go at seeing whether they could help the?Professional Game Match Officials Ltd (PGMOL) navigate the issues surrounding Virtual Assistant Referee (VAR) decisions in our Football Premier League.
The more serious point?is that applying the framework to everyday issues helps test the general applicability of the questions and?brings the framework to life. Do share how you have been using it to navigate your own lean journey.
Elsewhere, we decided to share some digital downloads on the learning platform. We've added 3 as follows:
- Standardised Work Templates and Examples
- Kaizen activity status report Templates and Examples
- Skiils Matrix - Capability Development Plan Template and Examples
Each of these is included in our Learning Platform Subscription or available separately from the shop. LEA is playing its part in the Lean Global Connection (LGC.)?For those that aren't aware the LGC is a 24 hour event organised by the Lean Global Network.
Presentations come from across the world. Sign up is entirely free, follow the link below. Finally, I'm delighted to say that we have an agenda for our 2024 UK Lean Summit. We've built on the themes from last year and have also redesigned the pre-Summit day, going back to full day workshops designed for capability development.
It won't have gone unnoticed that it was Halloween a couple of days ago. We hope you enjoyed Halloween!?
Best wishes
