Lean Six Sigma Success Benefits for Program Owners

Lean Six Sigma Program and Initiative Owners play a vital role in stewardship of a division, functional, or company-wide effort and Lean Six Sigma Success Coaching can play a big part. Owners are the connecting glue between the project doers, the leaders in the organization, process customers (inside and outside the company) and achieving great results. Because of this they become the focal point for a Lean Six Sigma Success Coaching effort. Here are some of the key things program owners can benefit from a Lean Six Sigma Success Coaching effort:

  • Linking Your Program to Company Strategy
  • Mastering the three secrets of fulfilling the promise of Lean Six Sigma
  • Creating a Continuous Improvement Culture
  • Creating a collaborative atmosphere where Lean Six Sigma thrives
  • Properly crafting and sequencing multi-year efforts
  • Working with functional leads, business leads and human resources to craft the culture and incentivize outcomes
  • Where to Spend Your Time Ensuring Success
  • The Five things to NOT do when running a program

Lean Six Sigma Benefits for Initiative Owners

Although the difference may seem trivial, we’d like to make a distinction between program and initiative owners. In terms of scope, program leads usually focus in on a portfolio of Lean Six Sigma projects whereas an initiative owner may have this, plus responsibility for influencing culture change, communications, and overall adoption of a Lean Six Sigma initiative. Plus, a program owner typically, but not always is given a budget to manage. An initiative owner may have far more say in commanding resources, both financial and human. Here are some of the key things program owners can benefit from a Lean Six Sigma Success Coaching effort:

  • Understanding the supporting and resisting cultural practices impacting your Lean Six Sigma Initiative
  • Setting up the right context for an effective resource conversation with the C-Suite
  • The “Three Cs” that make up the foundation of a comprehensive Lean Six Sigma initiative change effort
  • Setting up the optimal communications strategy and tactical structure to efficiently and effectively run a campaign
  • Running a company-wide governance structure, cadence, and accountability plan
  • Fostering an learning environment where project leads, teams, owners drive and practice transparency across the organization
