Businesses routinely attempt to accomplish too much and quickly lose focus when the next fire erupts or a new "shiny ball" appears.
Strategy Deployment (also known as hoshin kanri and policy deployment) is a highly effective means for creating and maintaining focus on the projects and improvement activities that lead to outstanding business performance.
Though Strategy Deployment (SD) was developed in the 1950's, it's experiencing a resurgence due to the growing popularity of Lean practices and SD's vital role in creating the climate for success.
In this webinar, you'll learn how to:
• Prioritize the laundry list of what you COULD focus on as an organization and create a "must do, can't fail" list of what you WILL focus on.
• Gain organization-wide alignment, the key to successful plan execution.
• Manage the plan to keep distractions at bay and generate the level of results all organizations are capable of.
In short, you'll learn how to accomplish meaningful improvement in a way that aligns rather than divides, and puts improvement in its rightful place as an integral part of achieving overarching business goals.

5. The Problem
1. Leaders are frustrated by the “little” measurable
improvement they’ve seen.
2. Improvement professionals are not held in as
high regard as they need to be.
3. Too much to do; too few resources; too little
time.
4. Juggling multiple balls is:

Is inefficient

Booz & Company study findings
• 49% - company has no clearly stated list of priorities
• 64% - biggest frustration is having too many conflicting priorities
• 82% - functional departments get competing demands from different business units

7. The Myth of Multi-tasking
• Not possible to do two conscious activities at
once.
• You are “switch-tasking.”
• David Meyer – University of Michigan
– Engineers switched between projects 5-8 times per
day
– Each switch added 20 minutes of process time
– If switch only 5x per day (1.7 hrs), adds 1.7 hrs per day
= 407 hours (10 weeks) of process time per engineer
– In company w/ 15 engineers = 3 FTEs worth of labor.

10. Apple’s Success
“…saying no to 1,000 things to
make sure we don’t get on the
wrong track or try to do too
much. We’re always thinking
about new markets we could
enter, but it’s only by saying
no that you can concentrate
on the things that are really
important.”
— Steve Jobs

13. Avoiding the Shiny Ball Syndrome
(Organizational ADD) Requires…
• Clarity – about what really
matters.
• Consensus – about what really
matters.
• Courage – to actively choose to
“not do” or “not do now.”

14. The Countermeasure: Strategy Deployment
Aka Hoshin kanri; policy deployment
Hoshin – Direction; compass; shining needle
Kanri – Management
Developed in the 50’s; core element of
TQM movement
Integral part of Lean
Establishes “true north”
Two key parts: Creating the plan itself &
and fanatic management to that plan.
Purpose: Organizational focus & alignment
Aligns everyone toward a few high impact
objectives while also keeping them accountable
for their commitments through visual
management and review.

Improvement Priority:
3 - Value Stream Map 10 Processes
Management Owner:
Bob the Boss
Date Created:
Dec. 12, 2005
Next Review:
Feb. 13, 2006
Team: Jim, Bill, Jill, Cindy, Wendy
Background: Being new to Value Stream Mapping, we expect there to be many new things learned as we map the processes and make the
improvements. We will utilize the experience of a Consultant during our first year of mapping our processes.
Relation to Annual Objective: By mapping the processes and taking action to
improve the processes, we will reduced the time it takes from reciept of order to the
delivery of product. This will in turn result in increased sales when the customers
become increasingly satisfied with our quick response times.

Plan
Theme: “What is our area of focus?”
Background
Do, Study, Adjust
Owner: Person accountable for results.
Countermeasures / Implementation Plan
• Problem statement
• What?
• Context - why is this a problem?
• Who?
• When?
Current Condition
• Where? (if relevant)
• Diagram of current situation or process
• What about it is not ideal?
• Extent of the problem (metrics)
Target Condition / Measurable Objectives
• Diagram of desired state
• Measurable targets – how will we know that
the improvement has been successful?
Effect Confirmation
• What measurable results did the solution
achieve (or will be measured to verify
effectiveness)?
• Who’s responsible for ongoing
measurement?
Follow-up Actions
Root Cause & Gap Analysis
• Graphical depiction of the most likely direct
(root) causes
• Where else in the organization can this
solution be applied?
• How will the improved state be standardized
and communicated?
26. Annual Improvement Plan
1. Gain clarity around overarching business needs.

doing).
3. Categorize into:
“Must-do, can’t fail”
Maybe
Eliminate
4. Decide what you will do – prioritize “maybe’s”
5. Create plan.
6. Manage plan via weekly updates (may be able to
reduce to monthly reviews – but be careful!)
