13 Change is like going to heaven, everyone wants to go but not right now!

14 What is Lean? Lean is a set of concepts, principles, and tools used to create and deliver the most value from the customer s perspective while consuming the fewest resources. From Mapping to See, Lean Enterprise Institute,

15 Encourages Front-Line Initiative Having a meeting that pulled people from each department and allowing them to work together was very beneficial. It was a great concept in which it allowed input and say from each department to create change and better the work place. We all felt valued. Implementing more meetings like we just had will create a great team environment. Maria, Medical Records

16 Develops Structured Thinking Around Problem-Solving

17 Your system is perfectly designed to produce the results you are getting - Frederick Taylor

18 Fosters Dialog Within the Organization

19 Even on the best day with the best team, the worst can happen because we re not really trained to talk to each other. If you re preparing for a concert, you would never ask the violins to practice on the third floor, the flutes on the second and the cellos in the basement, and then expect them to come together for a symphony. - Karyn Baum, University of Minnesota Medical School Molly Kelash, Closing In on Bad Communication, Pictures of Health, Fall 2006.

56 What did problem solving look like 6 months ago at your clinic? Took a long time to resolve issues/problems We were basically on our own to figure out how to handle a problem because we did not know who to ask. I would tell my boss about a problem, I could not go to my co-workers with problems. We had no way to discuss issues with a provider.

57 What does problem solving look like at your clinic today? Improved Communication and Team Problem Solving Doctors are invited (and show up) at our staff meetings to be involved as well, this is great! People are more receptive to suggestions. We were able to make some much needed changes using Lean things staff had been adverse to try. Once we did it, everyone realized it was for the best. We now have time at our staff meeting to group-solve and talk about problems.

58 What does problem solving look like at your clinic today? Collaboration Between Staff Members Staff are making their concerns known while taking in other opinions. When suggestions are made, we try one to see if it works. Improved Patient Care We are more aware of making the patient/family happy and pleased with all aspects of the visit and care.

59 What are you learning? That change isn t always bad. I can learn new things even at my age. Become more aware of how good my coworkers are I knew they were good, but I truly appreciate all they do now. That just because we ve always done it that way doesn t mean we have to continue to do it that way. I have learned I can find something that I think may need change and I have a way to present and discuss the possibilities.

60 Leadership Key Learnings Front line associates are key to success Lean is a great way to break organizational silos Value-added work is in the eye of the beholder Waste is also in the eye of the beholder Allows inputs from others to influence perspectives on waste and value-added work It is important to be sure that stakeholders from other major projects/departments are included in the work

61 Leadership Key Learnings Transformation is a continual process Gaps in management of day-to-day work were discovered 90-day goals might involve closing those gaps Lean allows us to live our Guiding Principles and support objectives of IHI s Triple Aim

62 Ongoing Lean Organizational Roles Directors: Leadership cascades vision and strategy Drivers: Management approves action plans and serves as a coach/mentor Doers: Staff identify and solve problems From Mapping to See, Lean Enterprise Institute,

63 Next Steps Introduce new employees into the culture Identify and skill up coaches embedded at each of our locations Align organizational behaviors Introduce additional system integration workshops Central Billing Office Low Back Pain Physician Recruiting Childhood Obesity

64 Bottom Line = Changed Lives Your care will be safe We know who you are and are ready for you We will see you when you want to be seen You will know what to expect We will be your trusted partner in health We will exceed your expectations
