About Cliff Pinsent
Continuous Improvement Philosophy:* Empower The Business - The most impactful and sustainable change comes from empowering individuals closest to the work - Must create a workforce of problem solvers, equipping teams with the skills to identify and resolve challenges independently - Ultimate goal is to \"work myself out of a job\" by building a robust and self-sufficient improvement ecosystem within the organization* Generate Pull for Lean/CI from Internal Customers- Each customer (front line, mid-level management, executives, etc.) has a different value proposition - Actively seek out, and address, their perceived problems first to build rapport - Progress to building, and executing on, that value proposition for each customer * Speak with Data - Utilize modern analytics tools like Power BI (or similar) to build one-source-of-truth models - Utilize 80/20 to guide where capacity is spent* Relentlessly Focus on the Process* Apply CI/Lean Methodologies Everywhere - Back office processes are, typically, not designed (they happen over time) and are hidden in the electronic world - The back office has the same, or more, waste as the manufacturing/ distribution areas* Pay for Yourself - If you do not show the value to the organization, you will not last
