Increase your competitiveness. Build your ability to improve!

To measure ”how Lean you are” should be done in your ability to continuously improve your business over time. The only thing which is certain is change. Therefor we need to grow a culture, capacity and the needed skills to improve over time.

We need put trust in teams and individuals in order to empower. We also need discipline and structure to increase awareness. This kind of culture most integrate into day-to-day operations or it will most probably fail. It should be part of our thinking and spine. When we look on our work with the mindset of continuously improving we have built a culture which will survive and thrive in the marketplace of tomorrow. Key here is to systemize the way we find, select and drive improvement work.

DEK Technologies have long experience in this area. We have been in the high tech Information and communications technology (ICT) since the company was formed. Besides our technical excellence our ability to improve over time is our greatest knowledge. We have implemented a systemized way of managing improvement work in-house, in our teams on customer assignments and in our customers teams and organizations.

So we have a very simple but powerful way of building our ability to improv. No magic, no big-bangs, no big effort. We support you in creating culture in a very practical manner. In order to change we need to establish new patterns. Patterns are created by repetition. We systemize the pattern of working with improvements and by doing so we secure that change stick!

We do it by experience and a set of simple services;• Establishing the Plan, Do, Check and Act (PDCA) cycle

• Driving envisioning to establish direction.• Grasping the current condition of your organization or part of it.• By knowing direction and current condition we set the next

target condition.• Building in the PDCA cycle to your current way of working

(work cycle planning, implementation and retrospective).• Train your staff in the simple work cycle.• Train your staff in Agile and Lean values in order to identify

improvements in the current process by looking at it in value stream and waste reduction perspective.

Though there are some “bi-products” of our services;•Empowerment of your teams.•Self-organization in your teams (only comes from making the employees owners of their work, result and maintaining it over time).•Cross-functionality in your teams (only comes from degrees of self-organization and the realization of flow efficiency in the value stream).•Waste removal and flow efficiency in your processes / value stream.

•A potential shift in leadership where we go from telling (command & control) to removal of impediments and monitoring progress.

We see it as very positive side effects. Actually these kind of effects can only be obtained through in such a way. We need to put trust in our teams and employees. By being trusted we commit. By committing we take on accountability. By being accountable we take ownership. By ownership we create results and sustainable value.

BUILD THE ABILITY TO IMPROVE, PROGRESS AND INNOVATECulture bets strategy - that’s a fact. To build culture we need to engage our employees. Empower and make them accountable. Support them in taking on ownership. To succeed in this transition we need give them the tools to build their own ability to improve and mature over time. The greatest motivator are purpose and progress in influencing one owns work in context of our business needs. We help you get going with very practical means!
