Description
To change the culture of an organization, leaders and teams must adopt new habits. However, these changes rarely occur without external guidance. Most organizations adopting lean or agile cultures are struggling due to their inability to sustainably alter the habits of continuous improvement, teamwork, and problem-solving. Training alone is insufficient; face-to-face coaching is necessary. The cost of external coaching can be prohibitive for many companies, which often lack sufficient internal coaches. The solution lies in developing coaching skills among every manager, who can then provide coaching to their peers and teams. This book provides the needed coaching process and skills, drawing on two bodies of knowledge: lean production systems and behavioral psychology. These methods are grounded in the scientific method, focusing on data and experimentation, and are practical enough for application in the workplace without advanced training. The model of coaching presented in this book is well-proven and easily adoptable.
