Hoshin Planning

Description:

“The Hoshin Plan” is a Lean Tool that, once developed, enables everyone to literally and figuratively be “on the same page” with regard to a Value Stream strategy and implementation plan. The Hoshin Plan is developed by a Value Stream Team, with the Value Stream Leader, who is responsible for the quality of the plan and the integrity of its implementation in the Value Stream.

The Hoshin Plan consists of:

A Value Stream Vision
Value Stream Measures of Success
Value Stream Key Results Areas
Value Stream Key Results Measures
Value Stream Key Strategies
Value Stream Principles of Operation
Value Stream 90-Day Kaizens

Learning Objectives:

  1. Understand the profound difference between managing “vertically” (the traditional way most of us have learned and have been trying to use) vs. managing “horizontally” (the Value Stream way to manage)
  2. Look at some actual results being achieved by others using Hoshin Plans
  3. Develop a Vision for each of your Value Streams
  4. Using the Vision as a “pull”, develop Key Results Areas, Key Results Measures, and Key Strategies for each of your Value Streams
  5. Create the initial 90-Day Kaizens appropriate for each Key Strategy in your Value Streams
  6. Develop your own Principles of Operation for each of your Value Streams
  7. Package all of the above in a Hoshin Plan document for each of your Value Streams
