Course Content Because lean manufacturing relies upon the full engagement of all members of the organisation, it requires an approach to planning and performance measurement that assures alignment and commitment of all members. Hoshin Kanri is a flexible leadership tool useful for setting goals, developing implementation methods and tracking performance progress in a lean environment, whether it be for an individual worker, a team or an entire company.

The course is based upon Toyota’s Hoshin Kanri approach, one that emphasises developing team member capability to achieve expected results. The course demonstrates techniques for implementing an effective Hoshin and how to avoid common pitfalls. Knowledge of the Hoshin Kanri process will allow managers and leaders to align resources for both short term and mid to long term perspectives to better tackle their company’s challenges through the lean transformation. This course consists of a combination of lectures, exercises, problem assignments and projects drawn from industry.
