then deploy it across the organization? Hoshin Kanri brings critical Lean thinking<br />

and behaviors to leadership practices aligning the entire organization on the most<br />

important “Must-Do, Can’t-Fail” priorities. How do you handle conflicting priorities<br />

and make the tough choices to de-select less important priorities? Emphasis will<br />

be on leadership team behaviors to drive accountability and focus with a sense of<br />

urgency. Also learn how adopting Policy Deployment can engage all members of<br />

the senior leadership team in the company’s Lean transformation.<br />
