Lean System Management for Leaders: A New Performance Management Toolset de Richard E. Mallory

Lean System Management for Leaders: A New Performance Management Toolset

Autor Richard E. Mallory
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 23 apr 2018
The concepts of quality management have been progressively interpreted and stylized by various practitioners over time, particularly through specific successful applications of its use. Its current predominant application has been narrowed even more through the focused practice of Lean Six Sigma. Through that narrowing, it has largely failed and given up on the application of quality practice to entire organizational systems—even though they are essential to designing and sustaining quality practice over time.
This book corrects that problem and introduces a broad new framework for system management, including practical tools and guidance for its use. It provides the long-promised "profound knowledge of systems" and shows how structured systems can unify and align quality practices throughout an entire organization. In addition, it introduces a framework for objectively measuring the maturity of systems and processes to provide an organizational quality scorecard, essential for sustainability.
Throughout this book, you will learn:
  • Descriptions and definitions of processes, systems, and projects and how they come together to provide an overall organization-wide framework for management and change.
  • Tools and practices for identifying and controlling systems through system mapping.
  • How to use a system management standard to objectively score process maturity, potentially leading to improvements in efficiency, effectiveness, and delivered value of all managed work enterprises.
  • How system management fits together with process management and project management to create an agile framework for overall organizational quality.

Recenzii

"Looking at the organization from the system's viewpoint provides a much more comprehensive understanding of its important functions and helps to define many new improvement opportunities. I was impressed with how the author got right to the key points, saving the reader valuable time."
Dr. H James Harrington, CEO of Harrington management systems Los Gatos California
Author of the seminal management book, Business Process Improvement (1991)

Mary Jo Caldwell, Leading AdvancePHX for the City of Phoenix, and former Director of Continuous Improvement for the State of Minnesota.
"Mallory provides an effective, clear, and easy to use framework for managers to use to establish their systems, and a maturity scorecard to evaluate the relative maturity of those systems. This is especially valuable in creating a new toolset to document the complexities of ISO 9001."

Descriere

This book shows leaders how to achieve superior leadership results by applying a Lean DMAIC (Define, Measure, Analyze, Improve, and Control) structure to leadership systems and program office operations. It provides specific guidance on system improvement through development of best known practice, achievable best practice, and an operational plan to carry it out.
Mallory shows leaders how to align and evaluate systems using a Lean approach, that will eliminate duplication and waste of executive and senior management time, and that will reduce the wait time and non-value add in dependent processes.
The book shows how to set up an organization-wide scorecard to rank the maturity and capability of fact-based management in all systems, projects and processes throughout an organization, as a means of creating sustained and predictable delivery of excellent products and services.
