Cheshire Cat: That depends on where you are going.

Alice: I don’t know where I am going.

Cheshire Cat: Then it doesn’t matter which way you go!!

The Plan

• In the beginning was the Plan

• And then came the assumptions

• And the assumptions were without form

• And the plan was completely without substance.

• And the darkness was upon the face of the workers

Hoshin planning systematizes strategic planning. To be truly effective, it must also be cross-functional, promoting cooperation along the value stream, within and between business functions.

2. Establish measurable business objectives that address these issues.

3. Define the overall vision and goals.

4. Develop supporting strategies for pursuing the goals. In the Lean organization, this strategy includes the use of Lean methods and techniques.

• Directing is the action step.

• You have planned and organized the work.

• Now you have to direct your team to get the work done.

• Start by making sure the goal is clear to everyone on the team.

• Do they all know what the goal is?

• Do they all know what their role is in getting the team to the goal?

• Do they have everything they need (resources, authority, time, etc.) to do their part? 55

Leadership StylesIs the manner and approach of providing direction, implementing plans, and Motivating people. Kurt Lewin (1939) led a group of researchers to identify different styles of leadership. This early study was very influential

and established three major leadership styles.

(U.S. Army Handbook, 1973):

Authoritarian or autocratic

Participative or democratic

Delegative or Free Reign

MYTH BREAKER

DELEGATION

Page 61: Focus Management Workshop & Cocktail Reception...•“Measure what you treasure” –REAL issues, goals; seek what matters –Celebrate gains & evolve •Beyond the board: Go for

What is delegation?

To “Delegate” means to entrust or transfer the responsibility

and/or authority to complete a task or project to someone

else.

Page 62: Focus Management Workshop & Cocktail Reception...•“Measure what you treasure” –REAL issues, goals; seek what matters –Celebrate gains & evolve •Beyond the board: Go for

What is delegation?

Three Ways to Delegate…

• By task (i.e., writing a report, coordinating a changeover, researching a patient complaint)

• By function (a group of tasks related to one particular activity, such as inventory and ordering, safety training, scheduling)

• By goal (various tasks necessary to fulfill a particular objective, such as improving productivity or developing a new patient program.

Page 63: Focus Management Workshop & Cocktail Reception...•“Measure what you treasure” –REAL issues, goals; seek what matters –Celebrate gains & evolve •Beyond the board: Go for

EFFECTIVE DELEGATION OBJECTIVES

If used effectively, delegation can be a useful tool for efficiency, training, coaching, and empowering employees (development).

Successful delegation requires:

thorough planning

clear communication

consistent follow-up, and

feedback

Page 64: Focus Management Workshop & Cocktail Reception...•“Measure what you treasure” –REAL issues, goals; seek what matters –Celebrate gains & evolve •Beyond the board: Go for

THREE COMPONENTS OF DELEGATION

Authority

The level of autonomy or power relative to the work/task you decide to assign: determining how the work/task will be done, making decisions, calling meetings, collecting information, contacting people, spending money.

Page 65: Focus Management Workshop & Cocktail Reception...•“Measure what you treasure” –REAL issues, goals; seek what matters –Celebrate gains & evolve •Beyond the board: Go for

THREE COMPONENTS OF DELEGATION

Responsibility

Any or all of the actual work or tasks you decide to have the person(s) perform.

THREE COMPONENTS OF DELEGATION

FOR TRUE DELEGATION SUCCESS

• You CAN delegate responsibility and authority

• You CANNOT delegate accountability, but you can share it.
