Driving Strategic Alignment with the Lean Management System

Every continuous improvement leader knows the pain of running projects that deliver results only to see those gains fade. The root cause is often the absence of a system that provides the structure to support change and connect True North, the organization’s unchanging direction, to daily work.

In this widely attended webinar, MoreSteam President Peg Pennington walks through the Lean Management System and why sustainable improvement depends on four interconnected systems working in harmony: strategy, problem solving, daily management, and the people system.

If you missed the session or want to revisit Peg's insights, the full recording is now available. Hear her clear, practical guidance on why change efforts slip and what leaders can do differently to support improvement that lasts.
