#KimBarnas – the "business performance (management) system"- I wish we hadn't called it anything," just the way we lead #SHS2015

#KimBarnas – we had to teach people A3 thinking, teaching them to solve problems. Then try to do that every day. #SHS2015

Kim: "Nurses don't like the word 'defect,' they don't produce defects." My thought – I think we need to come to terms with reality #SHS2015

#SHS2015 Kim Barnas describes "just do it" as initiatives that can be done in 3 steps, 3 days, and with 3 people or less.

I'm reminded of #Deming quote on copying from Japan. People want to copy ThedaCare, but they don't know what to copy! #SHS2015

#Lean management is not about "rolling out boards." Stop focusing on the board. It's about developing people & improving results.

"Leadership: Convince people to do things they didn't think they could do." #SHS2015

#Lean is also data (and fact) driven & also affects patient safety & quality. Not just #sixsigma. pic.twitter.com/XRclWQqOeu

It's great to see people start with a problem description, not just an idea or suggestion. #shs2015 #lean pic.twitter.com/905qtqrgoD

Value stream mapping is tough when team members arrive with pre-determined solutions, says @arcrofton #SHS2015
— Mark Graban (@MarkGraban) February 20, 2015
When VSM teams are frustrated & have pre-determined solutions, that's a symptom of the leaders not listening & not doing #Kaizen. #SHS2015

If nurses or others aren't excited about #Lean, don't blame them… that's our fault as facilitators/teachers, says @IsaacMitchell #SHS2015

"The hypothesis we were trying to test…" is a very apt way to start a #Lean presentation. @Jim_Rawson_MD #SHS2015

"Senior leaders have a privileged existence & normally don't have to explain themselves." #lean changes that. Hereford at #SHS2015
— Mark Graban (@MarkGraban) February 20, 2015
Hereford: standard work is the way all agree to do something. #lean #shs2015
— Mark Graban (@MarkGraban) February 20, 2015
Hereford: the typical QI process relying on past data is too slow. #lean uses visual management to see problems NOW. #SHS2015

Hereford drops #Deming on the #shs2015 crowd. Constancy of purpose prevents the cycle of insanity. pic.twitter.com/P3LV7zeFB7

Doctors, clinics & hospitals didn't start scheduling patient appointments until the 1950s. Before was just show up & wait. #SHS2015
