  • 42. 42 Lean management lights the path to excellence. Clarity is at the core of it all.

Editor's Notes

  1. So why clarity? What led be to study it and decide it’s time to make clarity a topic for leaders and organizations to focus on. First, Lean management is all about creating clarity. If you drill Lean management practices—principles, practices, and tools--down to a single common component, it’s clarity that’s at the core of it all.
  2. Those were all large-scale gaffes. What about your organization? Where is clarity lacking? What does it cost you in lost productivity, errors, expense overruns, frustration… lurks… insidious disease? When you begin to shine a flashlight on the topic in your corners, you begin to see a lot of cobwebs. Lest you think this only happens in big companies or overseas…. How many of you are familiar with Baeder-Meinhoff phenomenon? (show of hands) – pronounced Badder-Mainfoff. It’s also known as a frequency or recency illusion; one of the myriad cognitive biases we have. Once you focus on something you see it everywhere because your brain is excited about something new and paying more attention. Silver Audis are everywhere!   Well, once you decide to write a book on clarity you see the lack of it everywhere. Now that you’ve been to this keynote, you’re going to experience this as well. An exec at one of our clients pulled me aside last week and said, “Curse you, Karen Martin! I can’t stop thinking about clarity! It’s a huge problem.” Yes, it is. Back to Baeder-Meinhoff - In Feb 2016, I moved to Santa Monica. You know how you’re typically a little bit “off” when you move into a new neighborhood? You’re still trying to find your way and learn where everything is? I finally got settled and went to the closest grocery store – a WholeFoods – for the first time. There was only one space around the store and this is what greeted me (slide 4).   If you look around you, lack of clarity is everywhere.
  3. Self-inflicted or natural/normal? Why do we ask people to be comfortable with ambiguity? Do we have to accept this “as is”? I argue no.
  4. The third thing is noise…Akiyoshi Kitaoka, PhD, University of Kyoto - For more optical illusions: www.bitly.com/AKillusions
  5. To connect the dots, you have to see the dots. You have to get rid of the noise to see the dots. Lean principles, practices, and tools help you remove the noise. But you have to utilize them. ALL of them.
  6. Coherence, precision, elegance
  7. This is true at an individual level and organization level as well. We morph between types but you’ll have a primary point of where you operate from in each circumstance. Can be pursuer at work and avoider at home; can be pursuer with staff and avoider with higher ups; can be an avoider around budget and pursuer about operational improvement.
  8. Why don’t we operate with clarity all of the time? Why is clarity difficult so achieve?
  9. We were born as clarity-seeking machines. What’s the number one question kids ask? Why. Number 2 – why not? But then something happens…
  10. And when kids can’t get clarity, it doesn’t feel good. As kids, they aren’t prone to hide their feelings. But as adults, we are. Why doesn’t it feel good? Because our innate curiosity is being squelched. You see, curiosity drives the need for clarity. If clarity is the engine, curiosity is the fuel. We are naturally curious. Yet parents who are on overload start discouraging questions. Why? You may have asked. Because I said so! May have been the reply. Bosses – I had one to said, “You know, you have a high need to know.” as if it was a problem. You could have a company filled with people from these environments. So what happened? What happens as children become adults?
  11. Curiosity killed the cat. Well, that doesn’t seem like a encouraging message.
  12. And then there’s Curious George. As wonderful as this best-selling series is, it doesn’t exactly celebrate curiosity. George’s curiosity always gets him in a pickle and then the Man with the Yellow Hat comes to the rescue. Still, George doesn’t decide I won’t be curious. But many people have. And it’s time to reawaken that. Because clarity is the machine and curiosity is the fuel. So what happens when our curiosity gets drummed out of us?
  13. Confirmation bias – seeking information that supports our beliefs. Automation bias – believing that automation solves everything. Dunning-Kruger effect – unskilled people overestimating their skills and experts underestimating their skills Bias that make you believe that things will remain the way they are Believing that you’re performing better than you believe Believing that you know your demand – IT tickets – 18,000 vs. 25,000
  14. Sporting goods manufacturer
  15. How many football fans do we have here? Which teams? Where are the Steeler fans?
  16. This is the standard board that will be animated throughout.
  17. The A3 report is a powerful clarification device. One of its greatest benefits is how it can mold thinking so that clarity becomes habituated into the problem solver. Because the problem solver is limited to 11x17” real estate and most problems are fairly complex, the problem solver is forced to distill and synthesize the information in a way that tells a more compelling story. Unfortunately what we see all too often are rambling reports that contain irrelevant information and don’t tell a clear story. Proper coaching helps problem solvers learn how to be more clear.
