GM Fremont What went wrong?
• It’s a Management System!• It’s an Organizational and a Personal
Transformation.
Lean From the Start• Lean is about solving problems through
continuous experimentation.
• We ask: what is our purpose as an organization? What value to create or what problem are we trying to solve?
• Then, how do we improve the work and how do we develop the people?
Lean From the StartDo startups face problems that are different from those of established enterprises? More uncertainty? Greater risk?Fewer resources?
Lean, Whether Startup or Established…
• Engage Everyone in Problem Finding and Continuous Experimentation
• Give Everyone Permission to Fail and Ability to Succeed
Lean Thinking
• Principle of “Just Enough” • Practice of Questioning and Experimenting• A personal transformation
