Ep.1515 - Lean Instant Pudding

In this episode, Jason Schroeder breaks down the real levels of Lean implementation inside an organization and why "Lean instant pudding" (just add water) is a lie. He explains the phases of Lean development over time, what it actually takes to move from participation to real implementation and culture maturity, and why most attempts fail when leaders want results without doing the work.

What you'll learn in this episode:

• The 3 phases of Lean implementation and why it takes time to mature.
• Why leaders who want "instant pudding" results usually aren't committed to real change.
• The two requirements Jason sees in every company that succeeds with Lean: caring about people + obsession with improvement.
• Why "fake Lean" hurts the industry and gives Lean a bad name.
• How leaders must model the behaviors (training, systems, improvement habits) for Lean to stick.

Are you trying to "install Lean," or are you willing to build the kind of culture where Lean can actually take root and sustain itself?
